The American has been ordered to find a new club for the second season in a row. Even though he turned around and became a valuable member of Juventus last summer, the Bianconeri are still trying to get rid of him this year. Juve added players like Douglas Luiz and Khephren Thuram to their roster, therefore McKennie won't get to play.
It may be more harder for McKennie to earn playing time if Teun Koopmeiners moves to the Allianz Stadium during this transfer window. The team most interested in signing him right now is Fiorentina, since clubs are not expressing as much interest in signing him as he would have wanted. Although Fiorentina is not close to departing, Juventus is willing to make some concessions in order to ship him out and is happy to work out a deal with him. McKennie's salary—which La Viola deems too high—remains a significant barrier to moving him to Fiorentina.
