Barcelona, Juventus set to lock horns over Ajax teenager

European giants Barcelona and Juventus could reportedly slug it out over the next summer for Ajax wonderkid Ryan Gravenberch, according to Tuttosport.

The 18-year-old midfielder, who came through the youth system at Ajax – has scored four goals and provided three assists in 19 appearances for the Dutch powerhouses.

The Netherlands Under-21 international was a key figure to Ajax’s 13-0 league win over VVV-Venlo on Saturday, while he played the entire 90-minutes against Liverpool in the Champions League last week.

Barca and Juve are huge admirers of the teenager and are prepared to battle for his signature at the beginning of 2021.

Gravenberch only signed a new three-year contract in June.

Barcelona and Juventus takes on each other in the group stages of the Champions League on Wednesday night.
