OFFICIALLY OFFICIAL: Juventus sign Pierre Kalulu on loan with option to buy

 

 

 ............

 

Juventus announced Wednesday evening that they have signed AC Milan center back Pierre Kalulu on a season-long loan deal that will have an option to buy come next summer. On the surface, it’s a solid move to secure a talented 24-year-old defender like Kalulu for a low loan fee of €3.3 million and a relatively affordable buy option 10 months from now. But the major concern is that Kalulu might not be able to shake the injury concerns that are now attached to him after he was limited to just nine Serie A appearances last season.

 

Juventus’ buy option new summer to make Kulalu’s loan deal permanent is set at €14 million with another possible €3 million in performance-related bonuses.

 

Kalulu, who underwent his medicals earlier in the day on Wednesday, will wear the No. 15 jersey at Juventus, a number that was open with Kenan Yildiz officially taking the No. 10 last week. ............

 

 

News of Juventus and Milan talking about a possible Kalulu deal first broke a week and a half ago ... but then suddenly went rather quiet. Like most of the other Juventus transfer dealings right now, it was a waiting game. Kalulu evaluated his options and, just as Juve were done putting the finishing touches on their 3-0 season-opening win over Como, the reports came out that he had decided to call Turin home for the 2024-25 season (at minimum).

 

But with Kalulu comes risk simply because we don’t know if he will be able to be reach the same kind of form he displayed during Milan’s Scudetto-winning campaign in 2021-22 season. Kalulu missed a total of 39 games in all competitions last season because of three separate injuries, the bulk coming with a torn thigh muscle he suffered in late October. ............

Official Hans Nicolussi Caviglia leaves Juventus after 16 years

 

 

Hans Nicolussi Caviglia has completed his transfer to Venezia as Juventus’ summer clear-out continues.

 

The midfielder has been with the club since he was eight years old and earned playing time in some crucial matches under Max Allegri last season.

 

He hoped to build on that momentum when Thiago Motta was appointed as the club’s manager, but the new coach did not see him as a key part of his plans. ............

 

Several teams expressed interest in signing him, but Venezia emerged as the most serious contender for the 24-year-old’s signature.

 

Juve has now accepted their offer, and he will continue his career there on loan with an obligation to buy. ............

Juventus intensify transfer talks for Jado Sancho

 

 

Juventus have ramped up their transfer activities in the final week of the summer window, engaging in discussions with the representatives of several high-profile players. The Italian giants are exploring options to bolster their attacking lineup, with Jadon Sancho, Nico González, and Francisco Conceição emerging as key targets.

 

The situation surrounding Jadon Sancho has gained significant traction. Reports indicate that Sancho’s departure from Manchester United is now a concrete possibility, with the player himself open to leaving Old Trafford. Juventus has made a direct approach to Manchester United, initiating formal discussions about a potential transfer.

 

This development follows earlier reports of Juventus expressing firm interest in the 24-year-old English winger. The club has been exploring the conditions of a deal, including talks over personal terms. Manchester United are reportedly seeking around £51 million for Sancho, though Juventus may look to negotiate a more favourable deal, possibly in the form of a loan with an option to buy. ............

 

As the transfer window enters its final week, Juventus appears determined to secure reinforcements for new manager Thiago Motta’s squad. The club’s sporting director, Cristiano Giuntoli, is working on multiple fronts to reshape the team and provide Motta with the tools needed for a successful campaign. ............

Juventus finalize deals for Nico Gonzalez, Francisco Conceiçao

 

 

 ............

 

 

According to reports out of Italy on Saturday, Juventus have finalized deals for both Fiorentina’s Nico Gonzalez as well as Porto’s Francisco Conceiçao. Not one, but two wingers will arrive in the final week of the summer transfer window and Thiago Motta will get two of the technical wide players that Giuntoli has been chasing for the better part of the last month. Both players will arrive on initial loan deals, with Gonzalez’s loan fee being €8 million with there being an obligation to buy worth a total package of around €37 million and Conceiçao costing Juve €7 million plus another €2 million in bonuses for the season-long loan.

 

Considering how the last 24 hours have been when it comes to rumors about Juventus chasing wingers — Gonzalez, Conceiçao and Manchester United’s Jadon Sancho — it only made sense that news of the two deals being closed came in relatively short order. ............

 

But for now, we know that Juventus have two talented wingers about to join the squad. As we bid farewell to Federico Chiesa and scramble to learn anything we can about Samuel Mbangula, Giuntoli has secured Gonzalez, a winger who already knows Serie A quite well, and Conceiçao, who could very well bounce between both wings depending on the situation. (Remember, if Koopmeiners arrives the expectation is that Kenan Yildiz slides out wide to the left wing.) ............

Juventus seal move for Porto’s Francisco Conceicao

 

 

Serie A giants Juventus close a deal with Porto for Francisco Conceicao’s transfer.

 

Francisco Conceicao is set to join Juventus on a season-long loan spell. The Portuguese will arrive in Turin tomorrow to complete his medical examinations and sign his contract. 

 

The Bianconeri reached an agreement with the Primeira Liga side for the player on a €7 million plus €2 million in bonuses deal. Conceicao was not called up by Porto in their last match versus Rio Ave as he was part of final negotiations. ............

Done deal: Juventus reach Nico Gonzalez agreement with Fiorentina

 

 

Multiple outlets in Italy are reporting that Juventus have now reached a final agreement with Fiorentina over the transfer of Argentine winger and recent Copa America winner Nico Gonzalez. ............

 

The Bianconeri have agreed to bring Nico Gonzalez in on loan with an obligation to buy. Most outlets agree that the deal will cost Juventus a total of €38m. It will be a €8m fee to bring him in on loan for the season, with a €25m buy clause plus €5m in bonuses for a total of €38m. 

 

That is not far off the €40m price tag that Fiorentina had originally been seeking. 

 

Nico Gonzalez already agreed a package on personal terms with the Old Lady earlier this month, and is reportedly ready to sign off on a €3.5m per-year contract.  ............

Juventus asks Man Utd to contribute to Sancho’s salary before they sign him

 

 

Jadon Sancho is becoming an important transfer target for Juventus as the Bianconeri intensify their pursuit of the Manchester United star. ............

 

The Red Devils are reportedly open to letting the attacker leave before the transfer window closes and could be willing to sell him for as low as €40 million. However, even if Juventus prefers a loan deal, they would face challenges in covering his wages.

 

Juventus has requested that United cover part of Sancho’s wages to facilitate the move. His current salary is too high for Juventus to bear alone, making United’s contribution crucial to any potential deal. ............

Atalanta wants to keep Koopmeiners and their delay tactic could work in their favour

 

 

Juventus’ biggest obstacle in their pursuit of Teun Koopmeiners may not be a competing club, but Atalanta themselves.

 

La Dea is fully aware of the value they hold in the Dutch midfielder and remain determined to keep him despite Juventus’ persistent interest. Juve has been tracking Koopmeiners since last season, with their intention to sign him being one of the worst-kept secrets in Italian football.

 

Koopmeiners is reportedly eager to make the move to Turin and has been taking steps to push through the transfer. He is currently in a self-imposed medical exile from the team. ............

 

Despite Koopmeiners’ desire to leave, Atalanta views him as a crucial part of their team and is reluctant to let him go. The delay in responding to Juventus’ offer appears to be partly due to their hope of convincing him to stay. ............

Juventus medicals booked for Nico Gonzalez and Conceicao

 

 

Nico Gonzalez is arriving tonight and Francisco Conceicao expected tomorrow, as Juventus make two big deals to reinforce their wings in one day.

 

Director Cristiano Giuntoli has been hard at work over the last 24 hours, managing to secure two important reinforcements for coach Thiago Motta.

 

The first was the agreement with Fiorentina for Nico Gonzalez, who arrives on loan for €8m with an obligation to buy for a further €25m plus up to €5m in add-ons. ............

 

Meanwhile, Francisco Conceicao is expected to land at Caselle Airport in Turin on Sunday, with his physical check-up scheduled for Monday.

 

This is expected to be a dry loan, meaning there is no option to make it permanent.

 

That makes this a surprisingly costly borrowing of a talented young player for €7m plus €2m in performance-related bonuses. ............

Official: Juventus sign Nico Gonzalez

 

 

Juventus have announced the signing of Nicolas Gonzales on loan with an obligation to buy from Fiorentina. ............

 

The 26-year-old arrived at the J|Medical Centre on Sunday morning to kickstart the routine procedures. And by the end of the day, Gonzalez has been officially unveiled as a Juventus player, becoming the club’s sixth signing of the summer. ............

 

Juventus will thus pay a loan fee worth 8 million euros, while the player’s purchase will cost another 25M payable in three installments, in addition to various bonuses that could reach 5 million. ............

Journalist says Juventus have now been unmasked

 

 

At the start of the season, there was considerable uncertainty surrounding Juventus, and Bianconeri fans were unsure what to expect from their team. ............

 

In the transfer market, Juventus started slowly, but they are now ramping up their efforts. Jadon Sancho and Teun Koopmeiners are expected to join the squad in the final days of the transfer window.

 

This would mean that Juventus will have one of the strongest squads in European football this season. Journalist Luca Marchetti notes that Juventus’s ambitions have been revealed, showcasing their strong desire for success. ............

 

“In the last few days of the market Giuntoli has brought Conceicao, Nico Gonzalez, Koopmeiners to Turin and now he is aiming for Sancho, so it can be said that Juve has thrown off the mask and is aiming for the big target . The Bianconeri are in the running for the Englishman and if Chiesa were to leave they could accelerate significantly. Of course, they can’t go beyond a loan and a lot of help from United will be needed, but the move could come.” ............

Juventus find new destinations for Facundo Gonzalez, Muharemovic & Riccio

 

 

Juventus are still working on trimming their squad, so they’re now set to part ways with three young defenders.

 

Alessandro Pio Riccio is all set to sign for Sampdoria on a permanent basis. ............

 

Then we have Facundo Gonzalez who was curiously on loan at Sampdoria last term. The Uruguayan has been on the Old Lady’s books since making the transfer from Valencia last summer.

 

The 21-year-old’s next career chapter will be in Rotterdam, as he should complete a transfer to Feyenoord. However, the source doesn’t reveal any details regarding the formula.

 

As for Tarik Muharemovic, Sassuolo have reportedly overtaken Genoa in the race for his services. ............

Juventus set two conditions to sign Sancho from Man United

 

 

Juventus are still keen to sign Manchester United winger Jadon Sancho before the end of the summer, but only on two conditions. ............

 

The Bianconeri can only able to afford Sancho on two conditions.

 

First, it would have to be a loan with an option to buy, as the Old Lady might not be able to afford a permanent purchase at the moment.

 

Second, Man United would have to agree to contribute to the player’s hefty wages. The England international earns around 8 million euros as net wages per season, a figure that is certainly outside Juve’s financial parameters.

 

So if these conditions were met, Juventus would have a concrete chance at landing Sancho regardless of Federico Chiesa’s fate. ............

Deadline Day Roundup: Djaló’s Roma deal collapses, Kostic staying at Juve for now

It ended up being a very quiet final day of the summer transfer window for Cristiano Giuntoli and Juventus.

 

 

 

The biggest question as Juventus headed into the final day of the summer transfer window was an obvious one: Could they really, after everything that they’ve done over the past week and couple of months, actually sign Manchester United’s Jadon Sancho. A move for Sancho, the once-incredibly hyped English teen star, would have meant adding another talented winger to a roster that has already added two very talented players over the last seven days.

 

But what Friday brought us was that Sancho did end up changing clubs. He just didn’t change his address for the next nine or 10 months (at minimum) to something in Turin. ............

Tiago Djaló heads to Rome but doesn’t sign with Roma

You had to figure something was up when Djaló — who has all of one Juventus appearance to his name since signing with the club in January — was more than a little cryptic when asked about signing with Roma after undergoing his medicals.

 

“I don’t want to talk now. I’ll do it later on,” Djaló told reporters. ............

 

It turned out that Djaló was basically parked in a hotel in Rome as Roma worked on trying to get other deals done. Ultimately, all of the waiting caused the deal for Djaló to collapse and leaving a player in which Juventus was hoping to potentially loan out on the final day of the window now coming back to Turin with a bit of an uncertain future. ............

Filip Kostic wants to try and fight for a spot at Juventus

What was lacking was Kostic’s approval to go ... anywhere other than the club that currently employs him.

 

It didn’t matter if it was a big from Southampton in the Premier League or a big-money contract from Saudi Arabia, Kostic reportedly turned down pretty much every club that was even in the slightest bit interested in signing the 31-year-old Serbian winger who is coming off a tough 2023-24 campaign in which he didn’t score a goal and recorded just four assists, his lowest total since 2017-18. Reports out of Italy just before the deadline arrived said that Kostic instead wants to try and convince Motta that he can be a contributor to this season’s squad. ............

Why Juventus gave up on Sancho from Manchester United

 

 

Juventus have given up on signing Jadon Sancho from Manchester United, according to reports in Italy, having already secured enough reinforcements. ............

 

Juve did not want to pay more than half his €10m per season salary and would’ve preferred a dry loan without any option to buy.

 

In addition, they had already signed Nico Gonzalez and Francisco Conceicao for the wings, with Next Gen youth player Samuel Mbangula impressing in Serie A so far this season. ............

Fenerbahce confirm agreement with Juventus over Kostic

 

 

Fenerbahce have released a statement confirming an agreement with Juventus over the transfer of Filip Kostic. ............

 

During the summer, Kostic rejected proposals from Saudi Arabia, as well as the likes of Crystal Palace and Southampton.

 

But with the transfer market shut almost everywhere on the globe, Turkiye became his ultimate escape route.

 

The winger has been linked with a move to Galatasaray, but it was their crosstown rivals Fenerbahce who managed to seal the deal.

 

Kostic will thus join Jose Mourinho’s revolution on the east side of Istanbul. He will sign for the Blue and Yellow club on loan until the end of the season. ............

Juventus looking to secure the services of the “New Verratti” on long-term deal

 

 

Juventus are reportedly working on locking down Diego Ripani, a teenage midfielder likened to Marco Verratti.

 

The San Benedetto native is an 18-year-old deep-lying playmaker who started his career at Pescara, which partially explains the link to the former Paris Saint-Germain star.

 

The Bianconeri poached the teenager in 2021, and immediately placed him in the U17 squad, although he was still 15 at the time. ............

 

Nevertheless, the midfielder could earn a promotion to the Next Gen squad in the coming months, thus reuniting with his former coach Paolo Montero.

 

Ripani is thus considered one of the most promising talents in a talent-stacked youth sector.

 

Juventus are keen to armor the former Pescara player with a new contract. ............

 

Ripani has also been leaving his mark on the international level. He has already earned eight caps for Italy U21, scoring a single goal in the process.

Juventus to scout young PSV striker in Champions League opener

 

 

This evening, the Juventus directors in the stands will be keeping a close eye on PSV Eindhoven’s up-and-coming striker Ricardo Pepi.

 

The 21-year-old has been developing his game under the guidance of Peter Bosz since joining the Dutch giants in 2023. ............

 

Cristiano Giuntoli and company will be scouting the USMNT star with an eye for a future transfer.

 

The Bianconeri could even go hunting for a new striker as early as January. ............

 

 

Therefore, Juventus eventually kept Arkadiusz Milik as a backup for Dusan Vlahovic, but could decide to make some changes to their personnel upfront as soon as they get the chance.

 

So it remains to be seen if Pepi will be among the considered profiles for the role.

 

The El Paso native might be young but has already assembled significant experience at both club and international levels. He has already made 30 caps for the USMNT, bagging ten goals in the process. ............
