Juventus’ pursuit of Blaise Matudi is over, the club’s CEO Giuseppe Marotta has confirmed.
Matuidi had emerged as a top target following the departure of Paul Pogba to Manchester United.
Lengthy negotiations are thought to have took place of the Frenchman’s possible switch to the Juventus Stadium.
However, PSG have deemed the 29-year-old unsellable and are hoping to extend his current deal in the French capital.
"Nothing has happened in regards to a potential deal between ourselves and Paris Saint-Germain," Marotta said to Premium Sport via Goal.com.
"They let us know that Matuidi was not up for sale and made a pretty explicit statement.
“It is something that often happens during the transfer window. I believe that our pursuit of Matuidi is now finished. Despite our attempts to accelerate proceedings, for now it is safe to say it is over."
