Osimhen’s Champions League reunion with Spalletti after 49 Napoli goals and Serie A title The upcoming Champions League meetings between Juventus and Galatasaray will mark a reunion between Luciano Spalletti and Victor Osimhen, who won the Serie A title at Napoli in 2022-23. ............ Less than three years ago, the pair won a historic Serie A title at Napoli, the first one in 33 years for the Partenopei. Osimhen greatly contributed to Napoli’s milestone with 26 goals that made him the Serie A’s Capocannoniere for 2022-23. ............ Overall, Osimhen scored 49 goals and provided 12 assists in 71 appearances under Spalletti at the Stadio Maradona.

Chiellini: Juventus ‘respect’ Galatasaray but ‘never’ close to Osimhen Juventus director Giorgio Chiellini says the Bianconeri have ‘great respect’ for their Champions League play-off opponent Galatasaray, but insists the Serie A giants were ‘never’ close to signing Osimhen. Juventus have been drawn against Turkish giants Galatasaray in the Champions League knockout play-off. ............ “It’s a strong team with great players. We’ll play the second leg at home, so it won’t end in Istanbul, but we’ll have to be good at going to that stadium to play our game and exploit their weaknesses and limit the big potential and individual players, not just in attack,” Chiellini said from Nyon after the draw. “We all know Osimhen, but they are strong in other departments too.” ............ Back in 2013, Chiellini was on the pitch and Antonio Conte on the bench when Juventus lost a group stage game against Galatasaray, facing elimination from the Champions League group phase. It had been postponed by one day due to heavy snow in Istanbul, but when it was played, the pitch’s condition was far from ideal. “We lost it on the pitch, and I even made the decisive mistake, regardless of the snow and the pitch,” Chiellini said. “Now we are two different teams. We must respect their quality, because they have quality players in all departments, but we must also be aware of our skills and put in an important performance. It will go down to details, like every knockout game, we’ll have to be mature to play in Istanbul and confirm ithttps://football-italia.net/chiellini-juventus-respect-galatasaray-osimhen/ the following week.” A reporter asked Chiellini if he would have liked to play up against Osimhen on the field. “Right now, I couldn’t cope,” he replied, smiling. ............ “Galatasaray have many important players, some of whom have played in Serie A too. Turkish teams are making investments, and there’s great respect for a storied club like Galatasaray. It’s a fascinating challenge, it will be a tough game, but also an important test for us. We still have all to play for in Serie A, Champions League and Coppa Italia. We have some interesting weeks ahead.” Have Juventus ever been close to signing Osimhen before he moved to Galatasaray from Napoli? “If you mean that a club likes Osimhen, I think it’s true for all the teams, especially in Italy,” Chiellini concluded. “But realistically, there’s never been anything more than this.” .

Champions League play-off draw: Juventus to play Galatasaray Juventus have been pitted against Galatasaray in the Champions League play-off following Friday’s draw in Nyon. The Bianconeri finished the group stage in 13th place. They began their campaign with a dramatic 4-4 draw at home against Borussia Dortmund, before dropping points in Villarreal. ............ Juventus had to wait until the fifth matchday to earn their first win of the campaign, thanks to Jonathan David’s last-gasp winner in Bodo. They then beat Pafos and Benfica at home, before sharing the spoils in Monaco on the final day of the group stage. The Serie A giants’ 13th spot meant that their next opponent will either be 19th-placed Club Brugge or 20th-placed Galatasaray. In the end, the draw decided the Old Lady’s fate, and the Italians are set to play the Turkish giants, who have Victor Osimhen leading their line. ............ The first leg of the Champions League play-off will take place on February 17/18, while the return fixtures will be held a week later. Thanks to their seeded rank, Juventus will host the decisive leg at home. ............ . Read more -> https://www.juvefc.com/champions-league-play-off-draw-juventus-to-play-galatasaray/

Juventus accelerate McKennie contract talks – The figures revealed Juventus are now determined to keep Weston McKennie in Turin beyond the current campaign, so they have intensified their attempts to lock him down with a new and improved contract. The USMNT international has been on the club’s books since making the move from Schalke in the summer 2020, making him the club’s longest-serving outfielder behind Daniele Rugani. ............ The Italian manager considers the Texan absolutely crucial to his tactical jigsaw, as he can cover multiple roles during the game, thanks to his elusive versatility. Therefore, Spalletti has been urging the management to do their utmost best to convince the player to linger at Continassa, and avoid losing him for free in June. Moreover, Weston’s father, John McKennie, revealed that his son has never been happier in his playing career. ............ The club intends to push back the contract’s deadline until June 2028 or 2029, while offering the player a pay rise. The American currently earns circa €3 million in net wages per year, but Juventus are offering him a salary worth €4 or €4.5 million. McKennie is originally a central midfielder, but hardly plays in this role these days. He is often deployed as a right wing-back in Spalletti’s 3-4-2-1 formation, while also interpreting the role of a winger and an attacking midfielder when the team switches to a 4-2-3-1 lineup. At times, the former Leeds United man can alternate back and forth between several playing positions during the contest, allowing Juventus to adopt a hybrid formation. ............ .

Juventus could swap Joao Mario for Emil Holm Juventus and Bologna are reportedly considering swapping the services of their two right-backs, Joao Mario and Emil Holm. ............ Holm and Mario could swap clubs in the coming days, with the two clubs pondering an exchange of loans. Holm is a 25-year-old right-back who has been plying his trade in Serie A since joining Spezia in 2021. Due to his hardworking ethics and never-say-die attitude, the full-back has been likened to former Juventus star Stephan Lichtsteiner, who was an instrumental player for the Bianconeri during Antonio Conte’s reign and Max Allegri’s first stint. ............ Unlike Mario, who is already an afterthought at Juventus, Holm is part of Vincenzo Italiano’s plans. However, Nadir Zortea is now considered Bologna’s first choice right-back, while the experienced Lorenzo Di Silvestri still receives occasional opportunities. However, Juventus are facing stern competition for the Swedish international, as Napoli are keeping close tabs on the player, and the same goes for Premier League strugglers Wolves. ............ .

Questo é infatti il problema maggiore e i nostri dirigenti non riescono a prendere nessuno.

É bilingue. E ama piú la Turchia che la Germania avendo scelto di rappresentare la nazione di suo padre piuttosto che quella di sua madre. Di solito i turchi nati in Germania (e in Olanda) preferiscono parlare turco piuttosto che tedesco (olandese).

Del Piero & Di Canio disagree on Yildiz choice: “Juve can’t afford it” Juventus star Kenan Yildiz started on the bench against Monaco in a decision that sparked a debate among fans and pundits. The Bianconeri settled for a draw in the French principality on the final matchday of the Champions League, with neither side able to break the deadlock. ............ For his part, Alessandro Del Piero agreed with the choices made by the Juventus manager, reckoning the importance of keeping Yildiz fresh ahead of the upcoming fixtures. “Leaving Yildiz out? I think it’s a smart move. I read it as giving those on the fringes the chance to get minutes and prove themselves in a Champions League match,” argued the iconic Juventus captain during his post-match appearance. “Tonight’s game is important to finish as a seeded team, so you rest your most important creative player, Yildiz, who needs to be at peak physical condition to produce that burst. “It’s about giving the right weight to this qualification: beyond whether you’re seeded or not, regardless of playing the first leg at home or away, the mindset is ‘we go out there to take on anyone’. “He’s trying to build a team that’s strong whatever happens. You end up with a happier squad after the match if everyone performs well: you satisfy those who haven’t played, and those in the starting XI will accept it for a while longer.” ............ ormer West Ham and Lazio striker Paolo Di Canio argued that the Juventus head coach should have fielded his strongest lineup. “Juventus can’t afford these kinds of choices,” said the former Sunderland manager, who was also present in the Sky studios. “When you face teams in Europe, even if they’re struggling, they have more power and stamina than you. Monaco have players who will hurt you in space. Right now, Juventus can’t afford to leave out certain key players: Locatelli’s passing patterns, Yildiz’s bursts. “Sometimes you have to do it out of necessity, but it should be in a moment of growth, when everyone has improved. You can’t afford these choices because Thuram can’t do what Locatelli does — you lose tempo and it becomes a different Juventus. “And the opponent you’re facing isn’t one of the thirteen teams below you in Serie A, it’s Monaco.” ............ .

Romano: Juventus poach 16-year-old talent from Ajax Juventus have reportedly snapped up the services of Esad Deniz, a 16-year-old wonderkid who has been developing his talent at Ajax. The teenager was born in Enschede, Netherlands, but has Turkish origins. He began his young career at the academy of FC Berghuizen Jeugd, and then had a spell at Go Ahead Eagles, before joining Ajax’s youth ranks in the summer of 2024. The youngster primarily plays as a centre-forward, but he’s also capable of featuring on either wing when required. ............ “Exclusive: Juventus agree deal to sign 16-year-old talent Esad Deniz from Ajax, all done,” posted the transfer market expert Romano on his official X account on Thursday. “Travel to Italy today, medical tomorrow and new talent for Juve project. The contract will be valid until June 2028. Here we go.” At the tender age of 16, Deniz certainly won’t join Luciano Spalletti’s first team, but will begin his Italian experience with one of the club’s youth teams. ............ Curiously, Deniz has already represented both Turkiye and the Netherlands on the U15 and U16 levels. But regardless of his international allegiance, he could find a mentor in his compatriot, Kenan Yildiz. ............ . Read more -> https://www.juvefc.com/romano-juventus-esad-deniz-ajax/

Tottenham determined to keep Kolo Muani despite Juventus interest While Randal Kolo Muani and Juventus seem eager for a reunion, it’s reported Tottenham are refusing to interrupt the loan agreement with Paris Saint-Germain. The striker already had an experience in the Bianconeri jersey on loan from PSG in 2025, but the clubs failed to agree on a permanent solution. ............ After Kolo Muani expressed a desire to reunite with Juventus, Tottenham slammed the door shut. They have seemingly no intention of letting the centre-forward go early in his one-season loan, even if the player and Paris Saint-Germain are open to the move. ............ If nothing changes, then Juventus will switch to a different target to reinforce their attack in the January transfer window. ............ .

Kolo Muani open to Juventus return as negotiations continue Randal Kolo Muani is open to returning to Juventus in the January window, so the Bianconeri hope to find an agreement with Tottenham and PSG. ............ Juventus hope that the player’s desire will play a key part in negotiations with the French and English clubs. Kolo Muani is on loan at Tottenham, but is formally owned by PSG. The Frenchman played the second half of 2024-25 on loan at Juventus, scoring 10 goals and providing three assists in 20 appearances in Serie A, Coppa Italia and Club World Cup. ............ Juventus director Giorgio Chiellini said on Wednesday: “Kolo was very happy with us last season, but he is not a Juventus player now. We’ll see, everyone wants to strengthen the group and give the coach a few more options to choose from, but I cannot give you the percentages for certain players.” ............ .
