Beyond finances, Juventus cannot sign Jonathan David in January Juventus has identified Jonathan David as a top transfer target, recognising the Canadian striker’s prolific form for Lille in recent weeks. David, who has been a mainstay in Lille’s attack since joining the club in 2020, is reportedly set to become a free agent next summer, as he appears unlikely to renew his contract with the French side. This has sparked a high level of interest from European clubs, as acquiring such an in-form, young talent without a transfer fee represents a rare opportunity. Juventus is eager to sign David as early as the January transfer window to avoid fierce competition from other clubs in the summer. ............ However, the Bianconeri are facing a unique obstacle in their pursuit: the club has exhausted its allocation of non-EU player slots, which complicates David’s potential integration into their squad due to his Canadian citizenship. One solution Juventus is considering is signing David in January and immediately loaning him back to Lille for the remainder of the season. This strategy would ensure that Juventus wins the race for his signature while providing time to address the non-EU player slot issue. ............ . This approach is not uncommon in football transfers, particularly when logistical or regulatory issues prevent an immediate integration of a new signing. In recent years, Juventus has used similar strategies to secure top talent while managing squad restrictions. Given David’s versatility, technical skill, and goal-scoring ability, he is widely regarded as a player with the potential to make a significant impact at a top European club. ............ .

Why Juventus could be priced out for Ligue 1 striker Lille forward Jonathan David is widely expected to seal a free transfer in the summer once his contract with the Ligue 1 expires, and yet, Juventus could still it difficult to compete for his signature from a financial perspective. The 24-year-old has established himself as one of the deadliest and most consistent goalscorers in the French top flight over the past few years, so it’s past time he makes a move to a more prestigious club. ............ The Canada international is reportedly gunning for a net salary of 6 million euros per year, in addition to a signing-on fee worth 10 million euros. ............ The Bianconeri have been heavily linked with the Lille striker in recent months. Some consider him the right profile to join Dusan Vlahovic in a move that would strengthen the club’s meager attacking department, while others believe the Canadian would be the right profile to replace the Serbian who has yet to renew his Juventus contract (expiring in June 2026). ............ This season, the Brooklyn native has netted 12 goals in 17 appearances across all competitions, consolidating his role as Lille’s main talisman. .

Juventus make first contact with the entourage of Ligue 1 bomber Juventus have reportedly made the first concrete move in their attempts to secure an agreement with Lille striker Jonathan David. The 24-year-old has established himself as one of the deadliest bombers in Ligue 1 since his arrival in France back in 2020. ............ The Canadian has refused all renewal offers, as he seems intent on pursuing bigger career objectives. This situation has alerted several top clubs around Europe, including Juventus who might need a new striker with Dusan Vlahovic failing to deliver on a consistent basis. ............ The club’s Football Director Cristiano Giuntoli has already made contact first with the player’s entourage. The Bianconeri would like to place themselves ahead of the competition from the very start, as they reportedly consider David one of their main objectives for next season. ............ The Brooklyn native has often been deployed as a centre-forward, but he can also feature as a second striker or an attacking midfielder when required.

McKennie joins six other Juventus players on the club’s transfer list Juventus have reportedly added Weston McKennie to the list of players who are available on the market this summer. ............ The 26-year-old’s spell with the Bianconeri has been a true rollercoaster, as he found himself on the outs on a couple of occasions, before being reinstated in the squad, and it even included a brief loan stint at Leeds United. But we may have already seen the last of the versatile midfielder in a Juventus jersey. As the source explains, McKennie has been expected to pen a new deal for several months. But while Federico Gatti is all set to finalise his contract extension in the coming days, the Texan’s situation looks drastically different, as his supposed agreement with the club has apparently gone up in smoke. ............ The transfer list also includes his friend and compatriot Timothy Weah who resisted a move to Nottingham Forest, but could end up returning to France through the gates of Marseille. Samuel Mbangula is another player on the fringes of Igor Tudor’s project, while the club will be desperate to offload Dusan Vlahovic and Douglas Luiz. Moreover, Lloyd Kelly has failed to impress in his first few months in Turin, so he’s available to leave for the right offer, and the same applies to Nicolas Gonzalez. .

Juventus, Olympique Marseille in talks over potential Tim Weah deal It’s already been an eventful summer for Juventus winger Timothy Weah, and it doesn’t look like that might slow down any time soon as the rumor mill continues to swirl regarding his future in Turin. ............ Juventus and Olympique Marseille are in talks over a possible move for the 25-year-old Weah. It wasn’t even two weeks ago that Weah rejected a move to Premier League Nottingham Forest, which would have had him be one half of a double signing with fellow winger Samuel Mbangula. But once Weah didn’t accept personal terms with Forest, a new suitor was needed if Juve were to sell him — and looks like Marseille might prove to be just that. The reported price it might take for OM to sign Weah is that same that Juventus and Nottingham Forest had agreed to last month: €15 million. There’s been no word on how advanced the negotiations are, but Juve and Marseille are talking, according to multiple reports that have come out in the last couple of days. ............ As part of their report, L’Equipe said that Juventus have inquired about Marseille center back Leonardo Balerdi, who is reportedly a favorite of Igor Tudor. The two worked together during Tudor’s time as Marseille manager during the 2022-23 season. However, Marseille don’t want to part with the 26-year-old Argentine and that he is not connected to any potential deal for Weah. .

David: ‘Very excited by Juventus move, I love to score goals’ New Juventus signing Jonathan David assures he always saw them as ‘one of the top 10 biggest clubs in the world’ and he is ‘very excited’ to start his Serie A career. ............ “Growing up as a kid, I always looked up to a club like Juventus and thought, this is probably one of the top 10 biggest clubs in the world,” David told the official Bianconeri website. “So for me to be sitting here today is an honour.” ............ “As a player I love to score, I love to be in the game and find ways to combine, to get my teammates involved. My biggest strength is just finding space and being in the right place at the right time.” ............ “I’m very excited. Every step of the way is always a challenge, so coming to Serie A is also a challenge to adapt to the league, adapt to my teammates, and to be as successful as possible.” David is also the first ever Canadian to play for Juventus, although not the first to represent his country in Serie A. “It feels good. I am trying to pave the way for other Canadians who have the talent to one day do the same things I am doing now.” ............ “I hope we have a great season and to do everything to win titles here.” .

Official: Jonathan David joins Juventus with 5-year contract Jonathan David has officially signed a five-year contract with Juventus after passing his medical, the Canada international arriving as a free agent. According to reports, his contract is worth €6m per season plus bonuses up to €2m. He flew in this morning and spent all day undergoing medical tests before putting pen to paper. ............ The 25-year-old had made the move from KAA Gent to Lille in 2020 for €27m, but then allowed his contract to run down on June 30. Although he is a free agent, this was by no means a cost-free transfer, because there were huge sums for the commission of his representatives. The official figure stated by Juventus is €12.5m, payable over three years. ............ Last season, David found the net 25 times with 12 assists in 49 competitive games for LOSC between Ligue 1, the Champions League and Coupe de France. .

Jadon Sancho to push underwhelming Juventus star out of Turin Juventus winger Nico Gonzalez is facing an uncertain future, especially amidst the rumoured arrival of Jadon Sancho. The Bianconeri have identified the Manchester United outcast as one of their main targets this summer. They have been in active talks to sign the 25-year-old in recent days. ............ In recent days, it has been suggested that Juventus turned to the London native after failing to secure an agreement with Porto for Francisco Conceicao. Nevertheless, the Serie A giants are still pushing to sign the 22-year-old Portuguese international. Therefore, Sancho’s arrival wouldn’t close the door on keeping Conceicao. Instead, Gonzalez could be the sacrificial lamb. ............ The 27-year-old failed to replicate the mesmerising displays he consistently delivered during his time in Florence, only producing flashes of brilliance throughout his first campaign at the Allianz Stadium. Therefore, Gonzalez is facing an uncertain future, and that Juventus would certainly consider a sale if they were to receive suitable offers. ............ .

Juventus offer Manchester United swap deal to unlock Sancho move Reports from Italy claim that Juventus are open to sending former Aston Villa midfielder Douglas Luiz to Manchester United, in hopes it will help them get a deal for Jadon Sancho over the line. ............ The reports suggest that alternatively to a player swap, the Old Lady are willing to cough up €25 million plus bonuses for the English winger, who spent last season on loan with Chelsea. ............ The fee is not the only hurdle, however, with Sancho’s reported wage demand of €8 million per season above the €6-7 million that the Bianconeri wish to offer (putting him on a par with new signing Jonathan David). ............ .

Juventus make U-turn on Daniele Rugani after his display against Real Madrid Juventus have reportedly changed their plans for Daniele Rugani who has recently returned to the club following a loan spell at Ajax. The 30-year-old has been associated with the Bianconeri since 2012 when he was poached from Empoli. ............ Last summer, Rugani was deemed surplus to requirements on the orders of Thiago Motta, so he was sent to Ajax on a one-year loan deal, before rejoining Igor Tudor’s squad for the FIFA Club World Cup. The Italian defender was an unused substitute in the three group-stage fixtures, but the manager resorted to his services in the Round of 16 clash against Real Madrid. Although the Bianconeri were defeated by one goal to nil, Rugani was identified as one of Juve’s best performers on the day. ............ Damien Comolli and company were initially planning to offload the centre-back whose contract will expire in 12 months. However, they now believe he could be useful for the cause. After all, Gleison Bremer still has some time to regain his full powers after a long layoff, while Nicolo Savona might be unavailable at the start of the season due to his recent injury. Moreover, Lloyd Kelly hasn’t fully impressed since his arrival in January. ............ .

Vlahovic refused to join Napoli in exchange for Osimhen Juventus are still determined to find a way to bring in Victor Osimhen, but Dusan Vlahovic has reportedly disrupted their latest plan. ............ Many believe that this is due to the 26-year-old’s hefty salary and Aurelio De Laurentiis’ asking price of €75 million (which is the value of the player’s release clause). Nevertheless, Juventus are looking to play their cards, even though they can’t activate the player’s release clause which is only valid for clubs outside Italy. ............ The Bianconeri offered Napoli the services of Vlahovic as part of the package to sign Osimhen. Damien Comolli and Co. were hoping to convince their southern rivals by offering them a ready-made replacement for their exiled striker. But as is often the case with swap deals, the negotiations never truly took off the ground. The source claims that Vlahovic utterly rejected the destination. ............ In recent days, it has also been claimed that Juventus are aiming to rescind the player’s contract by offering severance pay, as they are determined to take the 25-year-old off their books one way or the other. .

Passa nel 1913 al Genoa, ma incappa in un anno di squalifica per l'accusa di professionismo, all'epoca formalmente vietato: lui e il compagno all'Andrea Doria Enrico Sardi vengono contattati dal presidente del Genoa George Davidson, che propone loro di trasferirsi nel sodalizio rossoblù previo compenso di 3.000 lire; denunciati dal cassiere della banca alla quale si erano rivolti per incassare l'assegno, vengono condannati a due anni di squalifica, ridotti in seguito a uno, e al pagamento di 1.000 lire di multa. L'anno seguente, il primo in cui effettivamente Santamaria gioca con i rossoblù, vince il suo primo scudetto, benché questo gli venga ufficialmente riconosciuto solo al termine del primo conflitto mondiale, che aveva causato l'interruzione del campionato. Dopo la guerra milita ancora per una stagione tra le file del Genoa, che lascerà nel 1920 per trasferirsi alla Novese.

Why Osimhen could replace Kolo Muani at Juventus Victor Osimhen continues to be strongly linked with a move to Juventus as the club prepares for a major shake-up in their attacking department. With Dusan Vlahovic likely to leave in the current transfer window, the Bianconeri are exploring options to find a high-quality replacement capable of leading the line more effectively. ............ The Bianconeri also face a decision involving Randal Kolo Muani, who has spent the past few months on loan and made a strong impression. Juventus are interested in retaining the French forward on a permanent basis, but finances could limit their ability to secure both him and Osimhen. Although Kolo Muani earns less than Osimhen in net salary, a crucial financial detail may swing the club’s decision in favour of the Nigerian. Osimhen’s wages fall under the Growth Decree, which means the club would not have to pay full tax on his salary. This regulation could significantly reduce the overall financial burden of the deal, making Osimhen a more practical acquisition despite his higher headline salary. ............ Juventus are currently weighing the sporting and financial benefits of both players. Osimhen is widely regarded as one of the best strikers in world football, while Kolo Muani offers versatility and has already adapted to the squad. However, with budget constraints in play, the Growth Decree’s tax advantage could make Osimhen a more attractive option. ............ .

How long should Koopmeiners and Luiz remain before Juve decides their futures? Teun Koopmeiners and Douglas Luiz both joined Juventus during the summer transfer window as part of the club’s effort to overhaul their midfield. Following the appointment of Thiago Motta as manager, Juventus sought to adopt a new tactical approach and identity, beginning with the signing of Douglas Luiz from Aston Villa. ............ Before the transfer window closed, Juventus secured the addition of Koopmeiners, completing a double midfield reinforcement that was intended to transform the heart of the team. ............ Juventus have since replaced Motta with Igor Tudor, but the struggles of Luiz and Koopmeiners have continued. Despite tactical changes and a new voice in the dressing room, neither midfielder has been able to replicate their prior form. ............ There is an argument to be made that the Bianconeri should consider offloading both players while they still hold market value. Persisting with underperformers can be costly, especially for a club that demands silverware and high-level performance every season. Juventus may soon have to make a difficult but necessary decision regarding their midfield. .

Juventus supporters welcome David before official signing Juventus supporters lined the streets to welcome the club’s first new arrival of the summer transfer window: Jonathan David, who has undergone a medical with the Bianconeri and is now just awaiting an official announcement. David is set to join the Bianconeri on a free transfer after the expiry of his deal with Lille in Ligue 1 at the end of the 2024-25 season. While the move is cited as a ‘free transfer’, it is understood that Juventus will spend in excess of €15m on signing bonuses and auxiliary fees. ............ The Canada international arrived in Italy to complete his medical on Friday, and was welcomed by over 200 supporters outside JMedical, the club’s medical facility. He was able to stop for a couple of quick selfies and to sign one or two shirts in the crowd, before heading into the building to complete the final formalities of his Juventus move. .
