'He’s a player of great quality' - Juventus director confirms contract talks ongoing with USMNT star Weston McKennie

Juventus have opened negotiations to renew McKennie’s contract as the American continues to deliver his most complete season with the club. Director Marco Ottolini addressed the situation, acknowledging McKennie’s importance to the squad as his deal runs out in June.

“We are very happy with McKennie; he is doing well. We are in negotiations over a new contract,” Ottolini said.

McKennie is currently enjoying his best campaign in terms of goal contributions since joining Juventus. His production by season, in all competitions, reflects steady growth and a clear peak in recent years:

“He’s a player of great quality and can play many roles well. His numbers are impressive,” Ottolini added.

Since Luciano Spalletti took charge of Juventus on Oct. 30, 2025, McKennie has become the most prolific midfielder in Serie A across all competitions, leading his position with seven goals. His versatility, consistency, and end product have made him a key piece of Juventus’ project moving forward.
