Official: Juventus announce Emil Holm capture, Joao Mario to Bologna Juventus have announced the arrival of Emil Holm from Bologna, while Joao Mario headed in the opposite direction. While swap deals are usually difficult to negotiate, as they involve too many parties with conflicting interests, this one managed to reach the finish line ahead of Monday’s transfer deadline. The Bianconeri had brought in Joao Mario from Porto last summer, but the Portuguese never managed to impose himself on the manager’s plans, whether during Igor Tudor’s reign or with Luciano Spalletti. Therefore, Juventus managed to temporarily offload the 26-year-old, by sending him on loan to Bologna. The statement didn’t mention an option or an obligation to buy, so it appears that the Portugal international has joined the Emilian club on a dry loan, as reported on Sunday. ............ Shortly after confirming Joao Mario’s departure, the Serie A giants announced Holm as their latest signing on a free loan until the end of the season, with an option to buy for €15 million plus €3 million in bonuses. ............ Holm has been on Juve’s shortlist since his days at Spezia, but he was instead poached by Atalanta in 2023. ............ The Swede is expected to act as Pierre Kalulu’s understudy at right-back, but he’ll be hoping to make the most out of his opportunities to convince Juventus to shell out €15 million for his services in June. .

Juventus keen to sign Bologna full-back regardless of Joao Mario swap Juventus and Bologna are hopeful of exchanging Emil Holm and Joao Mario, but the Bianconeri are determined to sign the Swede anyway. With only three days remaining before the closure of the January transfer window, the Bianconeri are keen to add one more right-back to their ranks, as Pierre Kalulu, who adjusted into this role, hasn’t been given a single minute of rest since the start of the season. ............ Although the negotiations between Juventus and Bologna are going at a fast pace, Joao Mario remains undecided. The Portuguese right-back hasn’t started a match since Luciano Spalletti arrived at Contanissa. However, leaving the club after a few disappointing months remains a difficult pill to swallow. But while the two clubs will try to convince the 26-year-old to accept a late-winter move, the source claims that Juventus will attempt to close a deal for Holm, regardless of Joao Mario’s fate. ............ Holm has been on the Old Lady’s shortlist since his spell at Spezia between 2021 and 2023. The 25-year-old ended up joining Atalanta instead, before making the transfer to Bologna in 2024. This season, he has thus far made 19 appearances, registering one goal and five assists in the process. ............ . Read more -> https://www.juvefc.com/juventus-emil-holm-joao-mario-swap/

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 davvero juventino fin da piccolo

Juventus relieved as Yildiz has not suffered a serious injury Kenan Yildiz featured for only the first half of Juventus’ weekend match against Parma, with concerns quickly emerging that he may have suffered a serious injury. The attacker was unable to continue after the interval, prompting immediate attention from the club’s medical staff and raising questions about his availability in the coming weeks. The issue was identified as an abductor problem, which prevented him from playing on. ............ Yildiz has been one of Juventus’ standout performers during the current campaign and has played a significant role in their recent success. Losing him to a long spell on the sidelines would have represented a major setback for the club at a crucial stage of the season. As a result, the initial signs during the Parma match caused concern among supporters and staff alike. From the player’s perspective, Yildiz is eager to remain on the pitch whenever possible. He is aware of the influence he has within the team and understands that regular game time allows him to continue driving strong performances. His technical ability and attacking presence have given Juventus a valuable edge, and he will be keen to return as soon as he is deemed fit. ............ There has since been a more encouraging development regarding his condition. The injury is not as serious as first feared. The report indicates that the abductor problem is less severe than initially suspected, which suggests that Yildiz could return to action sooner than expected. This update will come as a significant relief for Juventus, who know how difficult it would be to replace his contribution at this point in the season. ............ .

Juventus will make fresh efforts to sign Kolo Muani in June Juventus have made repeated efforts to sign Randal Kolo Muani since the start of the current season, and their interest in the French forward has not diminished. The club see him as a key target as they continue to assess ways to strengthen their attacking options ahead of the next campaign. ............ During the summer, Juventus attempted to secure his signature permanently but was unable to reach an agreement with Paris Saint-Germain. Those negotiations failed to progress, leading to frustration between the two clubs. Despite that setback, Juventus remained attentive to his situation and explored further opportunities to bring him back. Last month, they made another attempt by approaching Paris Saint-Germain with the idea of terminating his loan spell at Tottenham and allowing him to return to Turin. That proposal was also unsuccessful, with the Ligue 1 side unwilling to sanction such a move. Even so, Juventus have not been deterred and continue to monitor developments closely. ............ Juventus are planning to renew its pursuit of Kolo Muani at the end of the season. Luciano Spalletti was unable to sign the striker he was keen to add during the most recent transfer window and will now be hoping that a deal can be completed in the summer. ............ .

Juventus expect Yildiz to be back for major Serie A showdown Juventus fans can breathe a sigh of relief, as Kenan Yildiz has seemingly averted a serious injury, albeit he’s still expected to miss some of the action. At the tender age of 20, the Turkiye international has already cemented himself as the club’s most valuable player. He has been absolutely decisive this season, scoring nine goals and providing his teammates with eight assists in his 31 appearances across all competitions. ............ Yildiz had to grit his teeth to make it until the half-time whistle, before making way for Fabio Miretti. Luckily for Juventus, the Turk’s services weren’t fully required at the Ennio Tardini, as his teammates were able to dominate the action. After the contest, Luciano Spalletti offered some positive updates, revealing that members of the medical staff had reassured him that the player did not sustain a major injury, but was only suffering from muscle fatigue. According to several sources in the Italian media, Yildiz didn’t even have to undergo clinical tests at the J|Medical Centre on Monday. ............ Yildiz is expected to miss Thursday’s contest against Atalanta in the Coppa Italia Round of 16, as well as Sunday’s Serie A clash against Lazio. Afterwards, Juventus will be hoping to retrieve him for the following weekend’s Derby d’Italia showdown against Inter at San Siro. ............ .

Official: Daniele Rugani leaves Juventus, signs for Fiorentina Fiorentina and Juventus have both announced that Daniele Rugani has finalised his deadline-day transfer to the Tuscan club. Following his return from his loan spell at Ajax, the 31-year-old resumed his benchwarmer role at the Allianz Stadium, which has mostly been the case since his arrival at Juventus in 2015. ............ On Saturday, Rugani was on the cusp of reuniting with his former Empoli and Juventus manager, Maurizio Sarri, as Lazio identified him as a replacement for Alessio Romagnoli. ............ Nevertheless, the Lucca native has ended up reuniting with another former Bianconeri figure, as Fiorentina’s new sporting director, Fabio Paratici, has managed to sign the centre-back he had brought to Juventus more than a decade ago. The Viola have now announced the arrival of Rugani on loan with an option to buy at the end of the season. ............ Juventus also followed up with an official statement of their own, confirming the departure of their longtime servant, while wishing him the best of luck in his new Tuscan experience. While neither club disclosed the figures behind the operation, earlier reports in the Italian press had revealed that Fiorentina will pay €500,000 in loan fees, while the obligation to buy has been set at €2 million. In the meantime, Rugani remains tied to Juventus with a contract running until June 2028, having signed a two-year renewal earlier this season. ............ .

Ecco perché il tuo nick é SuperMago ......

Parma 1 - Juventus 4: Initial reaction and random observations The month of February has the potential to be very good for Juventus. It also has the potential to be a very tough slog knowing that there are big games pretty much everywhere you look on the schedule. The beginning of the month, however, was one of the final chances between now and the March international break in which Luciano Spalletti’s squad will be facing a provincial side that is looking at a potential (likely?) relegation fight. And Juventus put down the hammer as you hoped they would against said provinciale. Juventus could have been up 2-0 within the first six minutes. They then actually took a two-goal lead heading into the half after a very strong opening 45 minutes at the Tardini. And even with Andreaa Cambiaso doing his latest boneheaded defensive error that (directly) led to a goal, Juventus then responded with two more goals to roll to a 4-1 lead over a struggling Parma side on Sunday night in Emilia-Romagna. The win, yet another very good showing against those sometimes difficult to deal with provincial clubs, propelled Juventus up into fourth place as we wait to see what Roma will do against Udinese on Monday night. ............ Juventus won big, they scored from a corner kick and later a set piece — that had a nifty little routine to it! — all the while dominating a Parma side that has struggled to score this season for large swaths of the game. It was a pretty good night to kick off a pretty good month. You got Bremer scoring twice in the same game. You got Weston McKennie doing Weston McKennie things and scoring yet another great goal as we continue to wonder what his contract status for next season is. We got Jonathan David out here being an absolute fox in the box and scoring a simple goal to put the cherry on top of his improving run of form since the turn of the new year. You got a lot of good things from Jvuentus on Sunday against Parma that totally outweigh all of the facepalming we all did when we saw Cambiaso score the own goal that momentarily made a 2-1 game out of nowhere. But the thing about this Spalletti squad is that they are just continuing to show more and more that they are simply under the direction of a better manager than the previous two coaches at this club. Spalletti has gotten them to play his brand of ball — they’re pushing for more goals regardless of the score and showing to be a pretty reliable on the defensive end following all of the troubles at the back under Igor Tudor. Yes, having somebody like Bremer helps a ton because he’s just that good, but it’s also the manager raising the level of the players that he has. One 4-1 win over Parma doesn’t prove that. But it’s the latest instance in which you can see just what kind of difference this Juventus has to it as compared to when the Bianconeri beat this same Parma squad on the opening weekend of the season. This team is confident, they’re playing well and they’re getting contributions from all over the squad. That’s a huge thing when it was just a few months ago we were wondering about how this team is basically Kenan Yildiz and if anybody else is going to actually come and help him out. I don’t have those same worries now. That is thanks to the work Spalletti has done since taking over for Tudor a little over three months ago. There have been a lot of games over that time, but three months really isn’t a whole lot of time in the grand scheme of things. That, again, speaks to the work Spalletti has done. ............ RANDOM THOUGHTS AND OBSERVATIONS Let us hope that the initial reports from DAZN Italia about Kenan Yildiz asking to be subbed off as the halftime break approached because of fatigue are that and only that. This is not the time for Kenan to be suddenly missing games due to any sort of injury no matter how minor it may be. (But also totally understandable if there were to be a case of muscle fatigue because of how much he’s played this season.) This really should have been a clean sheet for Juventus. Who was responsible for marking Cambiaso on the back post on that cross into the box? I’m glad it was a 4-1 win with plenty of room to spare so that I can make that joke and not be absolutely incensed because Cambiaso’s absolutely stupid own goal cost Juventus points. Or even caused Juve to just hunker down and try and defend a thin lead. ............ But real talk, though: When did Andrea Cambiaso become Marco Motta? You know who had a very good game? Michele Di Gregorio, the man who is in Juventus’ goal with whom folks love to point out even the smallest of issues. Di Gregorio made a couple of big, big saves — and even the more impressive when you consider he had little to do outside of that for extremely long stretches of time against Parma. PAY WESTON McKENNIE WHAT HE WANTS AND EXTEND HIS CONTRACT ASAP. Outside of one very bad giveaway, Manuel Locatelli’s passing was once again on point in the win over Parma. As a team, Parma completed around 350 passes. Locatelli alone completed 105 passes. He completed almost 90% of those passes. He was close to dead on perfect with his long-range passes. It was once again a sign of improvement for him under Spalletti. Unfortunately, we can’t necessarily boast about the performance from his midfield mate Khephren Thuram against Parma. At least he is continuing to be one of the creative forces of the goal celebrations. Pretty sure KT just needs some rest. Hopefully that happens in the Coppa Italia on Thursday. ............ That said, Francisco Conceição missed a couple of huge goal chances within the first six minutes and then got a really dumb yellow card that could have been more than that with a different referee. At least he had a really nice assist to Bremer on the opening goal, so at least there’s that. Another Pierre Kalulu assist. Rack ‘em up!!! That header from Bremer was an absolute bullet. That needed some serious velocity on the ball for him to get it in at the near post — and he did exactly that. Since his brutal PK miss against Lecce, David has four goals and three assists. Those are the counting numbers. There’s also the unofficial contributions to goals like he had on McKennie’s goal. This is a man who is starting to hit his stride and take advantage of the faith Spalletti has shown in him. More of this, JD. ............ Bremer good. Lloyd Kelly good. Lloyd Kelly is now consistently good. What a difference 12 months makes. It didn’t count due to Openda being offside, but that sure was a nice pass from Fabio Miretti to set him up. In conclusion, EXTEND WESTON’S CONTRACT. (Had to say it one more time.) That’s a pretty good start to the month of February. I certainly preferred that compared to how Juve ended the month of January, but that’s just one man’s opinion.

Juventus player ratings vs Parma: Magical night for Bremer In the 23rd round of Serie A, Juventus outplayed and outpowered their hosts Parma en route towards a commanding victory at the Ennio Tardini. ............ Juventus XI (4-2-3-1) Michele Di Gregorio – 7 The goalkeeper produced a series of important saves to keep Juventus ahead, but was denied a clean sheet by his own teammate, Cambiaso. Pierre Kalulu – 7 Another convincing display at right-back from the ever-present Frenchman, who provided the assist for McKennie’s goal, and set up Openda with a brilliant play. Gleison Bremer – 8 A night to remember for the Brazilian defender who scored a rare brace. Placed a powerful header past the Edoardo Corvi on the opener, and then latched onto a loose ball to swiftly restore the Old Lady’s two-goal lead. He also kept Mateo Pellegrino at bay, which was his original task, lest we forget. Lloyd Kelly – 7 ............ Andrea Cambiaso – 5 The Italy international’s underwhelming run continues. He squandered a couple of promising chances in attack and scored a comical own goal with his shocking attempt to clear the ball. Manuel Locatelli – 7.5 The Juventus captain is suddenly emerging as one of the finest Registas in the country. He picked up his teammates with fabulous long balls, including one that culminated in McKennie’s goal. The midfielder also stamped his authority in the middle of the park. Khephren Thuram – 6 ............ Francisco Conceicao – 7 A superb evening for the Portuguese winger, who was unlucky not to score a couple of early chances, but ended up delivering the assist for Bremer’s opener. His last contribution before exiting the pitch was instigating David’s fourth goal by forcing a shaky save out of Corvi. Weston McKennie – 7.5 The Texan’s spectacular run continues, as he got on the scoresheet with an acrobatic volley. He was also part of the build-up on Juve’s third and fourth goals, and had set up Conceicao, whose shot crashed against the woodwork earlier in the match. Kenan Yildiz – 6 ............ Jonathan David – 7 The Canadian may have scored the easiest tap-in of his career, but it was a fitting reward for his generous efforts. He had provided the ‘pre-assist’ for McKennie’s goal, and was in the right place to redirect the ball goalwards on the rebound, which allowed Bremer to poach his second on the night.

Spalletti: ‘Juventus don’t want Icardi, Kalulu like Di Lorenzo’ Luciano Spalletti explains Pierre Kalulu’s positioning at Juventus, reveals a Kenan Yildiz fitness problem, and assures they ‘don’t want Mauro Icardi’ from Galatasaray. ............ “It is better not to look at statistics, as often those come from static situations that do not influence the result, as football is more about sudden changes of pace, duels and second balls, that is where you get into the real game. Whoever is more wide awake there can win the match”. ............ “What is fundamental for me is having a rapport with a team that wants to enjoy its football, because that is how you unleash the quality we saw today. They must never be disconnected from the match, so always plugged in and ready for the next situation. “Every game is a step for us to learn, and it is never definitive, it is a process that keeps going. In any case, I told them they shouldn’t compliment me, but instead praise their teammates. This group has the potential to be a great team, thanks also to that unity and enjoyment they have in training and in a match situation. They combine enthusiasm with determination, no matter what you ask of them.” ............ “This position is crucial to give alternatives and create some chaos in the marking of the opposition team. He has this ability to start runs at the right time. A team must have this ability to go from tight to stretched out in a moment, knowing when to play short and when to go long,” noted Spalletti. “As you mentioned Di Lorenzo, I want to send him my best wishes to return to the field as soon as possible, because he deserves all the best. When I saw him hurt like that, it pained all of us. He is the master at that positioning between the lines, he is a complete player, and Kalulu is getting to that level too. He dictates the tempo for his teammates.” ............ “Yildiz told us during the first half he felt a bit of pain, but he could make it to half-time,” explained Spalletti. “We trusted him, but he now has a bit of pain even when walking, so we have to evaluate it, but it shouldn’t be too serious. I think it’ll be tough to get him ready for Thursday.” ............ “I get asked about Icardi and Osimhen in a press conference, so I can only speak highly of Icardi as a player when he was in my team,” explained Spalletti. “There were other situations that he took into the locker room that were about his home life and didn’t belong in the locker room, so I had to talk to him. When you are in a dressing room, you cannot keep the door open to let in other matters. “I had to make a decision then, and I decided to exclude him, so he had a reaction based on that. He is a good lad, a lovely person, and a fantastic striker. But we don’t want Icardi. Is that ok? “If I speak highly of someone then it goes all over the headlines that I want to sign him, but it’s not true. We are looking for a player with specific characteristics, if we don’t find him, then we’ll stay as we are. After all, McKennie is as good a hitman as anyone, you saw him again tonight.” .

McKennie and Bremer praise Spalletti: ‘Unique Juventus coach’ Gleison Bremer and Weston McKennie were full of praise for Luciano Spalletti after Juventus swept Parma aside 4-1. ‘He’s unique, I never in my career worked with a coach like this.’ The Bianconeri are keeping themselves in the thick of the race for a top four finish, further boosted by Como and Atalanta holding each other to a 0-0 draw earlier today. ............ “It’s a wonderful sensation to score goals, especially as I was out for basically a year and that was tough. I feel better, the leg is responding, and I am glad to help the team, what counts is that we won,” Bremer said. “The coach is very strong, you can see that he totally changed the way we play. Even when we win, he tries to keep us on our toes. We are still missing something, he always says so, but we’re on the right track. “This is certainly the best Juventus spirit I’ve experienced here. I only felt this kind of positivity at the start under Motta, but then I got injured. “Spalletti arrived with his mentality and you can see the difference he makes,” concluded Bremer. ............ “We work on the wall in training, so that’s what the celebration was, taking those steps,” McKennie said. “Spalletti is unique, as I have never in my career worked with a coach like this. He is so good, works with the team spirit, I’m really happy and I think everyone here is happy to be working with him.” .
