Mattia Perin set to join Palermo after Juventus medical

Summary

Mattia Perin is scheduled for a medical at Palermo this week after agreeing to a transfer from Juventus. The goalkeeper made a brief appearance as a substitute in Juventus's season opener against Frosinone. Perin has struggled for playing time at Juventus, where he primarily served as a backup since joining the club in 2018. His move to Palermo, a Serie B side aiming for promotion, reflects both his desire for more playing time and Juventus's willingness to reshape their goalkeeping options under coach Luciano Spalletti.
