Cher Ndour may not be enjoying the brightest period of his career, but the young midfielder remains one of the most promising talents in Italian football. His potential has attracted attention from several important clubs, with Juventus reportedly among those monitoring his situation.
The 22-year-old currently belongs to Fiorentina, who have high hopes for his development. His importance to the club was also highlighted by Fabio Paratici, who has previously singled him out when discussing the squad’s key players and future prospects.
Juventus will face Fiorentina at the Stadio Artemio Franchi tonight, providing the Bianconeri with an opportunity to take a closer look at Ndour.

Although Juventus are dealing with several issues that could complicate their January transfer plans, the midfielder is certainly a player worth keeping an eye on.
Ndour, who currently represents Italy at Under-21 level following his involvement in the youth national teams, will be eager to make an impression against the Turin giants while helping Fiorentina achieve a positive result.
Fiorentina Set €20-25m Asking Price
However, any potential move for Ndour would not come cheaply. According to Firenze Viola, Fiorentina have placed a significant valuation on the midfielder, with one particular factor playing a major role in determining his price.
Paris Saint-Germain retain a 50% sell-on clause in the player’s future transfer, meaning the French giants are entitled to half of any profit generated from his sale. This situation is expected to push Fiorentina towards demanding a substantial fee should they consider allowing him to leave.
The report suggests that Ndour would cost at least €20-25 million, making it clear that Fiorentina have no intention of letting one of their promising young talents depart for a modest offer.
Juventus are therefore aware that securing the Italian midfielder’s signature could require a considerable financial investment.
