Juventus reportedly become open to selling midfielder Weston McKennie after his second COVID breach, with Tottenham Hotspur and Aston Villa interested.

Juventus have reportedly become willing to sell midfielder Weston McKennie after the 23-year-old breached COVID-19 regulations for the second time in a matter of months.

McKennie, who agreed a permanent deal with the Turin outfit in March after beginning the 2020-21 season on loan from Schalke 04, hosted a lockdown party in March that was also attended by teammates Arthur and Paulo Dybala.

The trio were fined and suspended for those actions, but the USA international has again breached the guidelines six months later, and missed his nation's World Cup Qualifying clash with Canada on Sunday.

According to Daily Mail, the Italian giants have been left questioning whether their midfielder has the correct attitude to stay at the club, and are now open to a sale in the region of £25m, with Premier League sides Aston Villa and Tottenham Hotspur both linked with January moves.

"Unfortunately, I am suspended for tonight's match due to a violation of team COVID-19 protocols," the 23-year-old posted on social media.
