Openda's future in Turin looks increasingly unlikely, with Lyon understood to have made initial exploratory contact to assess a possible move for the Belgian striker. The French club are monitoring the situation closely and could yet enter the race in a more concrete fashion.
The 25-year-old managed just two goals in 37 appearances during a disappointing season at Juventus, making him a clear market opportunity for the club this summer. Sky Sport report that Openda had already drawn interest from Eintracht Frankfurt, Monaco and Nottingham Forest before Lyon's approach.
Jonathan David, meanwhile, has reignited interest in his own situation after scoring a hat-trick for Canada in their 6-0 win over Qatar at the World Cup. Juventus celebrated the performance on social media, but the forward's long-term future at the club remains in doubt regardless, with David continuing to be viewed as a player the club are open to selling.
According to Corriere dello Sport, Lyon and Tottenham are among the clubs tracking David's situation, though no advanced negotiations have yet taken place. The visibility offered by the World Cup could widen the field of suitors further, particularly from the Premier League and Ligue 1.
Juventus are determined to maximise any sale. Despite arriving as a free agent, the move still cost the club around €12m in total once fees, bonuses and signing costs were factored into the accounts. Juventus are now targeting a fee in the region of €30m, which would represent a significant profit on the books.
David's three goals against Qatar could prove a timely boost to those plans, adding leverage to a sale Juventus had already been planning to pursue this summer regardless of his World Cup form.
Between Openda and David, Juventus appear set for a significant reshaping of their forward line, with the club banking on a strong tournament from both players to maximise their returns in a market that already shows genuine interest from multiple leagues.
