Jonathan David is resisting attempts to move him on from Juventus, with the Canada international determined to stay and win over Luciano Spalletti.
According to IlBianconero, via CalcioMercato, there has been fresh contact in recent hours between the club and David’s representatives.
Juventus continue to push for a solution while the forward holds his position, wanting to remain in Turin, convince the coaching staff and revive his Serie A career.

David has drawn interest across Europe but wants Juventus stay
Interest has been registered from several directions. David made his name at Lille and remains well regarded in Ligue 1, particularly at Paris FC, while Hull City are among the Premier League clubs to have made an approach.
Other reports have linked him with Fiorentina, should Moise Kean complete his move to Como, and with Atletico Madrid in a possible exchange involving Alexander Sorloth.
David’s stance may yet shift under sustained pressure from the club. Juventus want the space his departure would create, with Giovanni Carnevali and Frederic Massara looking to land the physical centre-forward Spalletti has been requesting for some time.

That need was underlined after Sunday’s 1-0 win at Frosinone, when Spalletti criticised Randal Kolo Muani and said the striker Juventus are seeking might have different characteristics.
