Juventus is targeting a move for Atletico Madrid man Juventus could be active in the transfer market next month and have now been linked with a potential move for a La Liga star as they continue planning for the future. The men in black and white are working hard to ensure the squad remains competitive, and there is a growing belief that their new manager deserves additional reinforcements to build on recent progress. ............ Juventus already possess several attacking options and signed at least three players in that area during the summer. Despite this, the forward line remains a position that could be reinforced again, particularly with Dusan Vlahovic expected to leave the club. While the Serbian striker remains one of their key players, Juventus are clearly looking towards the future and assessing alternatives who could fit into their long-term plans. One name now emerging is Alexander Sorloth of Atletico Madrid. The Norwegian forward has been in impressive form over the last few terms, even though he is not considered a first-choice option at the Spanish club. His performances have continued to attract attention across Europe, and his situation has made him a realistic target for clubs seeking an experienced and reliable attacker. ............ Sorloth is understood to be keen on securing more regular game time, something that may be difficult to achieve at Atletico Madrid. As a result, a move away could become necessary if he wants to play a more prominent role. This scenario has opened the door for Juventus, who believe he could add physicality, experience and goals to their squad. ............ .

Why Chiesa could consider a return to Juventus next month Federico Chiesa has been linked with a sensational return to Juventus as he continues to struggle for regular game time at Liverpool. While the current campaign has been an improvement on his previous season in England, the attacker is still not featuring as often as he would prefer. His situation has prompted renewed speculation about his long-term future and whether a move back to Serie A could offer the consistency he is seeking. Chiesa has shown flashes of his quality this season, particularly when introduced from the bench, where his energy and direct approach have made an impact. ............ A continued lack of starting opportunities could encourage Chiesa to explore his options, and Juventus are among the clubs linked with a potential move. A return to Turin would be familiar territory for the winger, and the prospect of regular football could be decisive. Chiesa is believed to be open to the idea, particularly as Luciano Spalletti would be prepared to offer him more consistent involvement. ............ Chiesa is now at a stage where playing time is essential, both for personal development and for his wider ambitions. He is carefully considering his future and could be willing to accept a return to Juventus in order to play more regularly. Increased minutes would also strengthen his chances of earning a place in the Italy squad for the next World Cup, should they qualify. ............ .

AC Milan challenging Juventus for Premier League veteran Bernardo Silva is expected to leave Manchester City at the end of the season as the club continues to phase out several of their more experienced players, and a move to Serie A is emerging as a realistic possibility. Silva was among the first players to join City after Pep Guardiola arrived in England, and the Portuguese midfielder has enjoyed an exceptionally successful spell in Manchester, winning multiple major honours and establishing himself as a key figure in one of Europe’s strongest sides. Silva is approaching the end of his contract and is set to depart in the summer. ............ Silva’s future options remain open, with interest also expected from outside Europe, including Saudi Arabia. However, if he chooses to remain at the highest level of European football, Serie A could prove an attractive destination. Juventus believe his intelligence, versatility and winning mentality would translate well to Italian football, where tactical awareness and experience are highly valued. The midfielder’s potential arrival would represent a statement of intent, signalling Juventus’ desire to blend seasoned professionals with their existing core. His ability to influence games, both creatively and through work rate, aligns with the club’s ambition to return to sustained success. ............ Juventus may not have a clear path to his signature, as interest from within Italy is growing. AC Milan is also tracking Silva’s situation and is prepared to enter the race should an opportunity arise. Milan reportedly believes he possesses the qualities needed to excel in Serie A, and his profile fits well with their squad structure. ............ .

Real Madrid makes a decision on a player Juventus wants to sign Juventus are one of the clubs considering a potential move for Gonzalo Garcia next month, as the attacker continues to struggle for regular game time at Real Madrid. Garcia was a key figure for the Spanish side at the Club World Cup and was widely expected to establish himself as one of their standout players this season. His performances during that competition raised expectations that he would play a more prominent role in the campaign that followed. ............ Juventus have identified Garcia as a player who could benefit from a temporary move and potentially make an immediate impact. The Bianconeri is currently dealing with attacking issues, with Jonathan David struggling for form and Dusan Vlahovic sidelined through injury. This situation could provide Garcia with a strong chance of playing regularly if a loan move materialises for the remainder of the season. From Garcia’s perspective, a spell in Turin would offer valuable experience and the opportunity to prove himself at a high level. While he remains committed to fighting for his place at Real Madrid, the lack of match action has naturally fuelled speculation about his short-term future. ............ Despite the interest, Real Madrid appears unwilling to sanction a departure. The club have now closed the door on any potential loan move, insisting that Garcia remains part of their plans. Madrid views him as a key player capable of earning a role in the team and wants him to stay and demonstrate that he is ready to perform at the required level. ............ .

Davide Frattesi now wants to move to Juventus Davide Frattesi previously turned down Juventus in favour of a move to Inter Milan from Sassuolo, a decision that now appears to be weighing heavily on the midfielder. At the time, the choice surprised many observers, particularly given Juventus’ long-standing reputation as one of the most prestigious clubs in European football. For numerous players, the opportunity to represent the Bianconeri is considered difficult to refuse. ............ Frattesi was rarely relied upon under Inter’s former manager, and despite a change in leadership, his circumstances have not improved significantly. Consistent game time has remained elusive, limiting his ability to build momentum and showcase his qualities. This lack of trust has naturally led to frustration, particularly for a player eager to play a more prominent role at club level. As the season progresses, the midfielder is increasingly aware that remaining on the fringes could hinder his development. With competition for places fierce, his opportunities to influence matches have been minimal. That reality has prompted renewed consideration of alternative options, especially those that could offer a clearer pathway to regular football. ............ Juventus have now emerged as a potential solution to Frattesi’s situation. Luciano Spalletti is reportedly keen to work with him again, having previously coached the midfielder during his time with the Italy national team. Under Spalletti’s guidance with the Azzurri, Frattesi delivered encouraging performances, which have strengthened the manager’s belief in his suitability for the Juventus project. The Bianconeri also view the midfielder as a player capable of adding energy and depth to their squad. Juventus have already convinced Frattesi of their interest, and the report claims he is now eager to secure a move to the Allianz Stadium. Increased playing time is believed to be a key motivation, particularly with an important international tournament on the horizon. ............ .

Luca Marchegiani explains why Juventus has still not convinced him Juventus have been in fine form over the last few weeks, as the team have picked up new habits under Luciano Spalletti. The men in black and white have begun to show greater consistency and renewed hunger, qualities that could yet place them firmly in the race for the Scudetto and other honours this season. Their recent run of results has lifted confidence around the club and brought renewed optimism among supporters. ............ Despite this improvement, doubts remain over whether Juventus have truly returned to its best level. Former goalkeeper Luca Marchegiani has explained why he remains unconvinced, offering his assessment. “I think Juventus still hasn’t convinced me, despite having put together this run of results that has brought them back there. Let’s not forget that Inter, Milan, Napoli, like Bologna, have a game in hand. So they could be something more. But I’m not convinced, in the sense that it’s a team that you can see is improving, you can see that they’re finding solutions, but I don’t see them healed enough to say, ‘Now they can clearly take advantage of these five games, now four, that are within reach.’ This certainly helps at a time when the team is improving anyway.” ............ Marchegiani’s comments underline the challenge Juventus still face in convincing observers of their full recovery. ............ .

McKennie agent hits out at ‘lies and propaganda’ about Juventus contract Weston McKennie’s agent has hit out at ‘lies and propaganda’ about contract renewal talks with Juventus and a potential move to MLS. The midfielder is only tied to the club until June 2026 and negotiations for a new deal have not progressed. ............ However, his representative took to social media site X, formerly known as Twitter, to denounce these rumours. “I normally don’t respond to social media posts, but when false information is being spread, especially from verified handles, I have to intervene,” wrote Cory Gibbs. “This is Weston’s agent and I can confirm everything below is FALSE. Know your facts before spreading lies and propaganda.” ............ The fact remains that McKennie is out of contract at the end of the season, so within a few days will be able to begin talks with other clubs for a free transfer in July. It is not just MLS who might be interested, as AC Milan and Roma were both also linked to keep the USMNT midfielder in Serie A. ............ .

Pjanic urges Bianconeri to sign ‘best Italian midfielder’ Tonali Former Juventus star Miralem Pjanic insists the Old Lady should sign Sandro Tonali: ‘The best Italian midfielder.’ Newcastle star Tonali has long been linked with a move to Juventus. ............ “Perhaps, they need something in the middle of the park. Somebody like Pjanic would help,” Pjanic said, smiling, during his latest interview. “But I’ve retired now, so I’ll just enjoy my kid and be a father. I have no doubts, I’d sign Sandro Tonali right away. He’d be the perfect element. This Juventus side need somebody like him in the middle of the park. Tonali has strength, personality; he reads the game well and knows how to build up from the back. It would be a great coup for Juventus. As of today, he’s the best Italian midfielder.” ............ “The Juventus comeback does not surprise me at all. On the contrary, I can say that I expected it after Spalletti’s arrival. Luciano makes the difference at this level,” he said. “Juventus are improving game after game, so they should not set limits for themselves. All the top sides are quite close in the table, and when you play for Juventus, you must always aim for the top.” ............ .

Ciro Ferrara discusses Zhegrova’s impact off the bench Edon Zhegrova arrived in Turin with a growing reputation as one of the most exciting attacking players in Europe, and Juventus were confident they were securing a top-quality addition to their squad. His previous performances at Lille had marked him out as a player with significant technical ability, a key factor behind the club’s decision to sign him. Since his arrival, Zhegrova has shown flashes of that talent, particularly in appearances from the bench. As he continues to work towards peak physical condition, the attacker has delivered several encouraging displays and has contributed positively when called upon. ............ As the season progresses, expectations around Zhegrova are increasing. Juventus will require more decisive contributions from their attacking options, and the winger understands that his opportunity to establish himself as more than an impact substitute is limited. While his cameos have been effective, consistency from the start of matches remains the next step in his development. ............ Former defender Ciro Ferrara has closely followed Zhegrova’s recent performances and offered his assessment. He highlighted the importance of players capable of changing matches after being introduced. “The importance of those who come on and completely change the game. This means that evidently, even during the week, he’s been sending out some important signals, and on Saturday he was the one who literally split the game in two. So it’s true that perhaps it’s a little easier to come on during the game and make your contribution than when you’re a starter.” ............ .

Bucchioni does not think Juventus showed they can with Scudetto at Pisa Juventus have enjoyed a strong run of form in recent weeks, and the Bianconeri are fully aware of how challenging it will be to sustain that momentum while attempting to close the gap on the teams above them in the league standings. Performances leading into their latest fixture suggested a side growing in confidence and belief, with the quality within the squad becoming increasingly evident. However, their most recent outing against Pisa failed to meet expectations. While Juventus ultimately emerged victorious, the manner of their display raised concerns among observers and supporters alike. ............ Given the quality within the Juventus squad, there was an expectation that Pisa would be overcome with greater comfort. That scenario did not materialise, prompting questions about whether the team can consistently deliver at the level required to compete for major honours. Against a struggling opponent, Juventus were unable to assert control early, an issue that could prove costly against stronger sides. ............ Journalist Enzo Bucchioni offered a critical assessment of Juventus’ display, expressing reservations about their Scudetto ambitions. “I have doubts about their chances of winning the Scudetto. Juve are hungry, but Pisa are second to last in the table… Spalletti did a great job, he has personality, and that’s making an impact, but Juve won when Pisa couldn’t take it anymore. Zhegrova created two crucial balls, but some Pisa players were paying the price at that moment. If there had been a stronger team than Pisa, Juve wouldn’t have advanced for 70 minutes. A sign was seen, the wheel is starting to turn, but you can’t play like you did in the first half against Pisa. You’re Juve, you have to make up points, and you can’t manage things that way.” .

“Never on Juventus’ level” – Criscitiello identifies Comolli’s biggest summer mistake Sportitalia editor-in-chief Michele Criscitiello pinpoints the biggest blunder committed by Juventus CEO Damien Comolli since taking charge of the club. ............ Juventus fans have had several question marks about the 52-year-old’s work, especially following a transfer campaign that witnessed the arrivals of Jonathan David and Joao Mario, players who are struggling to leave their mark. Nevertheless, Criscitiello would argue that Comolli’s biggest sin wasn’t the players he signed, but instead confirming Igor Tudor as head coach following a brief stint as caretaker. ............ “He was never a Juventus-level coach, and we all knew it. At best, he could only act as a caretaker, and he did so without disgrace but without distinction. “Starting again with him was a major mistake, and we’d been saying it for months. That pointless Club World Cup should have been ignored to prepare for a full-scale overhaul. “Spalletti is the right man, but he can’t perform miracles. Too many signings last summer missed the mark, and now they have to scramble for cover. Tudor is a mid-table coach in Italy.” ............ .

Swap deal between Juventus & Genoa gaining steam Juventus and Genoa are apparently working on an exchange deal that will see Mattia Perin and Nicola Leali return to their former clubs. The Grifone’s interest in Perin has come out in the open, as their new head coach, Daniele De Rossi, requested a reunion with his former international teammate. ............ While he’s considered an important figure in the Juventus dressing room, Perin is finding it hard to resist a return to his original club, especially with a guaranteed starting berth on the offering. Genoa have already found an agreement in principle with the Latina native over a two-year contract. For this part, Juventus won’t lock down their longtime servant, but they will only release him once they find a suitable replacement. ............ In recent weeks, the Bianconeri have been constantly linked with Lazio’s second-choice custodian Christos Mandas, who is expected to leave Rome in January. But as the source tells, the Serie A giants are considering a cheaper alternative in Leali, who will become surplus to requirements once Perin returns to the Ligurian club. Leali started his career at Brescia before being poached by Juventus in 2012. ............ Juventus are open to bringing Leali back to the club in exchange for Perin, but the Bianconeri will dictate the timing of the operation, which might not ensue at the start of January. .

From Spain: Barcelona explore move for Juventus star Vlahovic Juventus star Dusan Vlahovic is among Barcelona’s primary targets to replace Robert Lewandowski and the La Liga giants have already sounded out the striker’s availability. ............ According to the report, Barcelona’s primary option remains to discuss Vlahovic’s free transfer for the end of the season, but it’s not ruled out that the Catalans will try to sign the 25-year-old for a reduced transfer fee in the January window. ............ The former Fiorentina star, however, is not going to be available until March 2026, having sustained surgery to repair a tendon in the left adductor earlier this month. ............ .
