Espanyol has expressed interest in acquiring Facundo González, a 22-year-old Uruguayan central defender who is currently with Juventus. The club has initiated contact to facilitate this transfer. It is noted that González was developed at Espanyol's youth academy before his move to Valencia in 2019, followed by a transfer to Juventus in 2023. Over the past two seasons, he has been loaned out to Sampdoria and Feyenoord. Juventus is seeking to sell him for a fee ranging from 5 to 6 million euros, and while they prefer a sale, they are also open to loan arrangements that include a purchase clause or shared ownership, options that Espanyol might consider. The interest in González arises as Espanyol looks to bolster its squad to avoid the difficulties faced last season, with only three weeks remaining in the transfer window. Nonetheless, they are up against competition from Genoa and Parma, who have also expressed interest in the defender.
