Juventus 2 - Parma 0: Initial reaction and random observations To be honest, I didn’t really know what to expect from Juventus as we hit the 2025-26 season opener on Sunday night. It’s just been a weird kind of summer, with most of the business being done on the “trying to improve the squad” front quite limited. There’s been no grand proclamations about a new project being built at the Allianz Stadium like we heard ahead of Juve’s season opener last season. ............ Juventus opened their season with a hard-fought 2-0 win over Parma. It wasn’t the same kind of dazzling and thrilling performance to open a new season when Juve beat Parma over a decade ago when the Allianz Stadium opened its doors for the first time for a Serie A matchday. But this was a positive start to a new season in which this Juventus squad is not getting the same kind of build-up and hype as it did last season under Motta. Yet with their best defender back on the field for the first time in an official game since his season-ending knee injury last October, with their young No. 10 providing both of the assists for their new No. 9 and their current No. 9 who may or may not leave this summer, and Tudor having this team looking rather well-drilled overall, Juventus began their season the same way they did a year ago. ............ Well, other than Andrea Cambiaso getting a straight red for something he knows he should never be doing. Other than that, I gotta admit that I’m pretty well pleased with how Juventus played to begin this new season. Was it perfect? No, of course not. You don’t rack up 25 shots like Juve did, only score two goals and deem it some sort of rousing success. ............ It took nearly an hour for the breakthrough, with Jonathan David showing us what he brings to the table with a neat little finish on Kenan Yildiz’s first assist of the night. The man everybody expects David to replace, Dusan Vlahovic, capped a barn-storming counterattack less than four minutes after coming on to cap Yildiz’s second assist of the night. ............ So basically get the ball to Yildiz and good things will happen, right? Well maybe it’s not that so simple. But for a guy who now has 12 goal contributions in 12 games in all competitions since Tudor became Juve manager, it seems like a pretty good place to start. Same goes for having Bremer back in the lineup after 10 months of waiting for him to make such a return to action. ............ RANDOM THOUGHTS AND OBSERVATIONS As I sit here and watch the pre-game anthem sound out over the speakers and the players are shown one by one, I can only think of one thing: Ah, Bremer. I’ve missed. you. I’ve missed you so much. ............ Bremer had nine clearances in his official return to the field after missing over 300 days of action. He also had one of the biggest moments of the night with a fantastic blocked shot early in the second half. Boy did that man prove to be just as important as ever. He also got his head wrapped like Giorgio Chiellini after he banged foreheads challenging for a ball in the air. What a night for Bremer, folks. In case you were wondering, the newest Canadian player in Italy has a thing for scoring in season openers. So prepare your bets for August 2026 now, folks, because JD looks like a good one for next year, too. Jonathan #David has scored four goals in his last four seasonal debut games between #SerieA and Ligue 1. Furthermore, David is only the second Canadian to score in #SerieA, after Tajon Buchanan for Inter against Frosinone on May 10, 2024. Ready.#JuventusParma pic.twitter.com/fNOVOkz8ow — OptaPaolo (@OptaPaolo) August 24, 2025 ............ It’s really hard to decide which Yildiz assist was better. They were both just so good in their own kind of ways. Don[’t know how many people caught it, but it sounded like every single little kid in the tunnel wanted to give Yildiz a high five and say hi. The young man is popular in Turin. ............ Andrea Cambiaso … brotha, what we doing? Like, come on. That’s just a stupid move when you’re team is up 1-0 and facing a team that is starting to push forward more than they have been in search of a tying goal. Tudor said after the game that Cambiaso will be fined — and he should. He’ll also get a couple of games worth of a suspension, thus ruling him out of the Derby d’Italia that’s right after the September international break. I guess we’re going to get Filip Kostic earlier than expected, huh? ............ Pierre Kalulu: not a wingback. I understand the desire to have him there for a little tactical flexibility in each phase of the game, but he’s not really somebody who works at a wingback — and I felt that way even before he was actually fielded as a wingback in this one. ............ I like when Juventus win. I like when Juventus get a clean sheet, too. What a nice little Sunday this ended up being.

Tudor: ‘David has rare talent, Juventus make final Vlahovic decision’ Igor Tudor praises ‘rare talent’ Jonathan David and admits he would gladly keep Dusan Vlahovic at Juventus, but ‘the directors make the final decision.’ ............ Debutant Jonathan David eventually turned in the Kenan Yildiz assist, with substitute Dusan Vlahovic securing a 2-0 result on another pass from the Turkish talent. ............ “I saw many positive things this evening in a very difficult match, though we weren’t expecting Parma to be so closed up,” Tudor said. “I told the lads at half-time to keep this up, we’d score sooner or later, the important thing was not to concede. It was important to start strong, as we saw with other results that it is not to be taken for granted that you’ll win at home against a team that might not be on the same level.” ............ “Everyone who came off the bench had the right attitude. These first games are never easy, there are many unknown quantities. Parma were quite old-fashioned in their tactics, almost Catenaccio defending,” continued Tudor. “We allowed them very little, but Bremer managed to prevent the goal with that block, and then we managed to take the lead. David has great movement in the penalty area, which is a rare talent, and is always concentrated.” ............ “Vlahovic is concentrated. He is a Juve player and does what he needs to do. He worked well in every training session, we’ll see what happens in this last week of the transfer market. We talk and will see.” ............ “As I said, Dusan is focused and he scored a quality goal this evening. If you ask me what will happen, I just don’t know. I have my thoughts and explain them, but the directors make the final decision,” replied Tudor. ............ . Read more -> https://football-italia.net/tudor-david-rare-talent-juventus-vlahovic/

Can Koopmeiners finally prove his Juventus doubters wrong? Teun Koopmeiners struggled during his first season at Juventus, and the Dutch midfielder is well aware that improvement is essential this term. The Bianconeri invested a significant fee to secure his transfer from Atalanta, having been impressed by his consistent performances in Italy, including matches against Juventus themselves. Expectations were high, and both the club and player had hoped for an immediate impact. ............ Despite the difficult first season, there are early indications that Koopmeiners may be set for a stronger campaign. He has shown signs of improvement, building on his performances during pre-season matches. In the game against Parma, he impressed after coming on in the second half, demonstrating the fitness, tactical awareness and composure that had initially made him a standout at Atalanta. ............ The 2025–26 season represents a crucial period for Koopmeiners. Consistency and strong performances will be vital both for his personal development and for Juventus’ ambitions across domestic and European competitions. Should he rediscover the form that prompted his high-profile transfer, it will be a significant boost for the team, helping to reinforce midfield stability and contribute to positive results. ............ .

Se ne parla in Italia delle frasi razziste dei parmensi rivolte a Mckennie oppure si evita, tanto é un giocatore della Juve? C'é da aspettarsi di tutto.

Juventus: McKennie subjected to ‘racist remarks’ after win over Parma Juventus midfielder Weston McKennie ‘was subjected to discriminatory, racist remarks’ by individuals in the away section after a 2-0 win against Parma yesterday. ............ “This evening, at the end of the match against Parma, Weston McKennie was subjected to discriminatory racist remarks by some individuals in the away section, while he was training on the pitch with his teammates who had not taken part in the game,” the Bianconeri said. “Juventus strongly condemns this incident and any form of racism, and will ensure full cooperation with the sporting justice authorities to identify those responsible.” ............ Circa 1,000 Parma fans were present in the away section last night, but all of them were ordinary supporters as the Gialloblu ultras had boycotted the game due to ticket prices. ............ .

Kolo Muani ‘furious’ with PSG as Juventus prepare one last onslaught Juventus will reportedly launch a last-ditch attempt to sign Randal Kolo Muani who is irritated with Paris Saint-Germain’s latest manoeuvre. After a positive loan spell at Continassa between January and June, the 26-year-old has been vocal about his desire to play his football in Turin for years to come. The striker was reportedly approached by a top Premier League club, but he decided to close all doors while waiting for the Old Lady. ............ In recent days, it has been reported that the European champions decided to raise the asking price from €55 million to €70 million, much to Juve’s dismay. Italian journalist Ciro Venerato revealed how Kolo Muani was ‘furious’ with PSG following their unexpected move. Nevertheless, the transfer market expert believes that Juventus remain confident about signing the player, as they think he’ll stay firm in his position and turn down all offers, which could eventually force the Ligue 1 giants to lower their asking price and return to the original request. After all, they wouldn’t want their €90m investment to linger on the sidelines until January. ............ In the meantime, the Bianconeri are still hoping to offload Dusan Vlahovic, despite getting on the scoresheet on Sunday night against Parma. ............ .

Juventus outcast Arthur lands in Brazil ahead of Gremio return Juventus midfielder Arthur Melo is on the verge of sealing a homecoming by signing for his original club. Gremio. For the fourth summer in a row, the Brazilian found himself an outcast in Turin. ............ This summer, Arthur has been linked with several destinations, including Real Betis and Besiktas. However, these tracks have faded in recent weeks, only for Gremio to emerge as the ultimate frontrunners in the race. The Brazilian giants have been keen to bring their academy product back, and managed to find an accord with Juventus. ............ The 28-year-old will undergo his routine medical tests before signing a contract with the black-and-blue giants. In recent days, it has been suggested that Juventus would be willing to rescind the Brazilian’s contract which is set to expire in June 2027. Nevertheless, the player joins Gremio on loan for the season, only to return to Turin a year later. The source even envisions a similar scenario for next summer where Juventus will have to find the player yet another club. ............ .

Juventus outcast Tiago Djalo set to join Besiktas in the coming hours Juventus are reportedly on the cusp of selling their unwanted defender Tiago Djalo to Turkish Super Lig giants, Besiktas. The 25-year-old is one of the few players who have been almost completely omitted from Igor Tudor’s plans. ............ Besiktas opened talks with Juventus for the former LOSC Lille star in recent days. The Istanbul-based club has seemingly been able to make rapid progress in their negotiations with both the Bianconeri and the player’s entourage, as the white smoke is about to emerge. ............ In January 2024, Djalo was supposedly betrothed to Inter who were looking to sign him as a free agent the following summer. However, the Bianconeri hijacked the operation by striking a deal with Lille to bring the defender to Turin immediately. The Old Lady spent circa €3.5 million to buy Djalo, so the club is expecting to make a capital gain. ............ . Read more -> https://www.juvefc.com/juventus-tiago-djalo-besiktas-hours/

Si vede che i nostri fratelli juventini hanno soldi in abbondanza.

Non ti curar di lor ma guarda e passa. Ma perché guardate ancora le trasmissioni sportive antijuventine? Avete il potere di farli fallire e invece continuate a mantenerli in vita. A me non interessa quello che dicono, fate cosí anche voi!

Gli arbitri sono dei calciatori e dei dittatori mancati.

Cuesta é un allenatore moderno? Allievo di Arteta? A me sembra che abbia studiato il Trap ........ catenaccio e contropiede, altro che gioco moderno.

Ascoltare e credere ai giornalisti e agli opinionisti é la cosa piú inutile che ci sia.

Senza parole .....

Coach: Tudor 7. Best Juventus player: Yildiz 8 – Easily the Man of the match with two assists. He was probably a bit soft in the first half, but he made the difference after the break. Two beautiful passes and three points for the Old Lady. The most talented player in the team, but this is no news. Lowest Juventus rating: Cambiaso 4.5 – Received an avoidable red card, which could have caused trouble for his teammates. Luckily for the Old Lady, Vlahovic doubled the lead just a few minutes later. ............ Juventus coach: Tudor 7 – Juventus played with intensity, tried to win the ball high up the pitch, but were also quite organised defensively, although Parma had a massive chance to take the lead early in the second half, when a Gleison Bremer clearance denied Mateo Pellegrino.

Serie A | Juventus 2-0 Parma: David and Dusan revive the Old Lady Jonathan David scored on his Serie A debut and Dusan Vlahovic proved he’s still got something to say at Juventus, who beat Parma despite the Andrea Cambiaso red card. ............ An early flicked-on long throw caused havoc at the back post, Andrea Cambiaso decisive to block Mathias Lovik’s tap-in. At the other end, Zion Suzuki had to flap a Francisco Conceicao diving header over the bar after an awkward bounce off the turf. ............ Bremer made a fantastic goal-saving block straight after the restart, throwing himself in the way of the Mateo Pellegrino tap-in from six yards on a Pontus Almqvist pull-back. ............ After a desperate Lautaro Valenti interception stopped the David flick, on the resulting corner, Kenan Yildiz twisted and turned down the left to roll across and David prodded home with the outside of the right boot from five yards. It was the first ever Canadian goal for Juventus. Pellegrino only grazed his head to the Almqvist cross from close range, but Suzuki got down for a tough save to push the Kenan Yildiz control and ferocious half-volley out of the near bottom corner. Juventus went down to 10 men as Andrea Cambiaso was perhaps harshly shown a straight red card for a reaction foul on Lovik. However, moments later they doubled their lead when Vlahovic went on the counter-attack and combined with Kenan Yildiz, ready to tap in the return pass from the right. ............ Juventus 2-0 Parma David 59 (J), Vlahovic 84 (J) Sent off: Cambiaso 83 (J) . Read more -> https://football-italia.net/serie-a-juventus-2-0-parma-david-and-dusan/

Juventus 2-0 Parma: Yildiz inspires opening-day victory for 10-man Bianconeri Juventus began their Serie A campaign on the right foot, beating Parma by two unanswered goals at the Allianz Stadium in Turin. Igor Tudor maintained his usual 3-4-2-1 formation, spearheaded by Jonathan David on his club debut. Kenan Yildiz and Francisco Conceicao acted as his support crew, while Pierre Kalulu played in an unusual role on the right wing, with Andrea Cambiaso on the opposite side. Aside from a couple of early scares, the Bianconeri dominated the action in the first half. ............ After the break, Juventus attacked the visitors with more intent and tenacity. Conceicao almost broke the deadlock, but his deflected shot rattled against the post. Nevertheless, the home side eventually took the lead as Kenan Yildiz played a short corner kick before dribbling past his marker and sending a square ball to the mouth of the goal. David showcased his swift reaction and clinical touch as he directed the ball home with the outside of his foot to celebrate his first Juventus goal. With seven minutes remaining of normal time, Cambiaso put the result in jeopardy as he got himself sent off for a foolish reaction on Mathias Fjørtoft Løvik. ............ However, Dusan Vlahovic eased the Old Lady’s fears by scoring the second goal shortly following his introduction. ............ Juventus celebrated a well-earned 2-0 win over the Crociati, and they’ll be hoping to do likewise next weekend when they play Genoa in their first away fixture of the season.

Chiellini comments on Juventus, Bremer and Kolo Muani: ‘If there’s an opportunity’ Giorgio Chiellini has given his thoughts on Juventus ahead of their 2025-256 Serie A season opener against Parma on Sunday evening, and has also weighed in with brief updates on Gleison Bremer and transfer target Randal Kolo Muani. ............ “I think Tudor spoke very well yesterday. We’re trying to create a solid team, working together game by game. We’ll see what happens later.” ............ “I’ve spoken to Bremer from the beginning up until now,” Chiellini said. “He’s gaining more and more confidence. His presence is important for his teammates and for the fans. We’re happy he’s doing well.” ............ “If there’s an opportunity to improve the team, we’ll do it. “Igor (Tudor) is making his stamp, not only technically, but also on player selection.
