Atletico Madrid are negotiating a season-long loan for Canada international Jonathan David from Juventus. The 26-year-old forward scored only six league goals in his debut season in Turin after joining on a free transfer from Lille. Atletico previously considered Nicolas Jackson, who moved to Aston Villa, and they intend to add David as depth rather than replace existing strikers.

David's potential arrival in Madrid would follow a difficult debut season in Italy, where he managed just six league goals after joining Juventus on a free transfer. His track record at Lille, however, shows a proven scorer: 109 goals in 232 appearances, including 25-plus in each of his final three seasons, with notable Champions League performances against Real Madrid and Atletico themselves.
