Juventus, Mattia Perin to Palermo: agreement on a permanent deal, a three-year contract ready
Today in Frosinone, the final appearance in a Juventus shirt
Mattia Perin is closing in on a move to Palermo. After talks reopened in the last few hours, the Rosanero stepped up their push and reached an agreement to bring the former Juventus goalkeeper to Sicily. The deal, according to Gianluca Di Marzio, will be a permanent transfer: a three-year contract is ready for Perin.
Palermo have made an important move, landing a goalkeeper with huge experience and a long track record at the top level of Italian football. Perin, born in 1992, is now preparing for a new adventure after his spell at Juventus, which appears to have come to an end today.
The goalkeeper therefore played what will be his final minutes in a Juventus shirt on the opening day of the league season against Frosinone. Perin came on in the closing stages of the match for new arrival Vicario, who was forced off by cramp.
It was a symbolic appearance before the move to Palermo, albeit with one scare when a Frosinone effort came back off the crossbar. Perin now bids farewell to Juventus and gets ready to turn the page: Palermo are waiting for him, ready to hand him the gloves for the next three seasons. The Sicilian side have landed an experienced, reliable addition and another important piece for their project.
