Juventus offer to send Kostic back to Fenerbahce in exchange for Mourinho’s pupil Juventus are determined to sign a new midfielder this summer, as Fenerbahce’s Sofyan Amrabat emerges as one of the options. ............ As reported earlier today, the Bianconeri have identified Sporting CP captain Morten Hojlund as their preferred candidate for role, but his expensive price tag could force them to look elsewhere. Hence, Juventus are keeping tabs on several other options, including Tottenham Hotspur stalwart Yves Bissouma and towering Fulham midfielder Sander Berge. Nevertheless, sources in the Italian press have now identified Amrabat as a potential solution for this role. The 28-year-old is a battling midfielder with substantial Serie A experience under his belt, having represented Hellas Verona and Fiorentina between 2019 and 2023. ............ Fenerbahce are willing to sell the midfielder for €15 million. This figure would represent a swift windfall for the Istanbul-based giants who have only recently exercised their option to buy the player from Fiorentina for €12 million. As the source explains, Juventus believe they might be able to drive the price further down by offering Filip Kostic in exchange. ............ .

Porto star lands in Turin to complete Juventus move Juventus are on the cusp of announcing their third major signing of the summer, as Joao Mario has arrived in Turin. ............ As reported earlier today, the two clubs have swiftly managed to find an agreement over a double deal involving two right wingbacks. Just six months following his transfer from Vitoria Guimaraes, Alberto Costa is set to return to Portugal through the gates of Porto who will pay €16 million for the 21-year-old. Moreover, Joao Mario will be moving in the opposite direction. ............ On Wednesday evening, Juventus confirmed the arrival of Mario by posting a video showing him at the airport in Turin. The Portuguese star is thus expected at the J-Medical Centre on Thursday morning to undergo the necessary medical tests. Once he gets the green light, he will head to the club’s headquarters to sign his contract and officially become a Juventus player. ............ .

Official: Juventus sell Mbangula to Werder Bremen Juventus have officially confirmed the sale of Next Gen graduate Samuel Mbangula to Bundesliga side SV Werder Bremen on a permanent deal after one season in the Bianconeri first-team. Juventus have confirmed that Werder Bremen will pay a fee of €10m over four instalments, plus bonuses of up to €2m. The Bianconeri have also confirmed that the sale of the recent Belgium international has raised €6.9m in capital gains. The 21-year-old has reportedly signed a five-year contract in northern Germany, which will run until the summer of 2030. ............ Mbangula leaves Juventus after a five-year association that began with his transfer from Anderlecht in the summer of 2020. He spent four years with the Primavera and Next Gen teams, before being thrown into the first-team set-up under Thiago Motta at the start of the 2024-25 season. ............ “We are very pleased that we were able to sign Samuel and that he has made a long-term decision to join Werder,” said Peter Niemeyer, sporting director at Werder Bremen. He continued: “We see a lot of potential in him. He enjoyed an excellent education in Belgium and especially at Juve and proved his quality at the highest level with Juventus’ professionals last season. ............ .

Juventus begin pre-season but need five more new signings Juventus have begun their pre-season without the unauthorised absentee Douglas Luiz, but the Bianconeri are still building their team as Igor Tudor needs five more new signings. ............ Francisco Conceiçao and Jonathan David have not arrived at Continassa either, but there’s no issue here as they had agreed to a slightly longer holiday period with the club. David is one of the new Juventus signings this summer, while the second, João Mário, underwent medical examinations this morning. ............ Coach Igor Tudor had demanded three more signings to make Juventus credible title contenders again in 2025-26, but the Serie A giants will need at least five more new faces to compete at the highest levels in Italy and Europe. ............ The Bianconeri surely need one more centre-forward as Dusan Vlahovic is expected to leave. Talks with PSG for Randal Kolo Muani are ongoing, but the Bianconeri are also keeping a close eye on Santiago Castro (Bologna) and Rasmus Hojlund (Manchester United). Jadon Sancho is another possible reinforcement, but only if Nico Gonzalez leaves, while a new centre-back is surely needed in Turin with Leonardo Balerdi and Jeff Chabot among the Bianconeri’s options. Morten Hjulmand, Yves Bissouma and Sofyan Amrabat are the Old Lady’s targets in central midfield as Sandro Tonali and Davide Frattesi are too expensive, while right-back Nahuel Molina has been discussed with Atletico Madrid in recent days. .

Federico Gatti gets major pay rise as Juventus announce contract extension Juventus have officially confirmed that Federico Gatti has extended his contract with the club until June 2030. ............ Juventus have been working on tying the player down with a long and improved contract for several months. Finally, the signatures arrived on Wednesday afternoon, with the club confirming it through a note posted on the official Juventus website. ............ “I’m very happy. Renewing my contract with this club, which is like a second family to me, is wonderful,” said the Italy international. “This has to be a new beginning; now I have to work hard because we need to get back to winning ways as soon as possible. Last season was a long and demanding campaign for me, but on a personal level, it was a great season. ‘I want to start again at my best, put the injury behind me, and get back to 110% to give everything for these colours.” ............ The new contract will see Gatti’s net salary improve from €1.4 miiliion per year to €3.1 million, which is considered a comprehensive pay rise. .

Milan ready to offer a defender in exchange for Vlahovic, but Juventus want another Milan are reportedly plotting a swap deal as they look to reunite Massimiliano Allegri with his Juventus pupil, Dusan Vlahovic. ............ Milan emerged as one of the most plausible destinations for Vlahovic, mainly due to Allegri’s presence. The Rossoneri are also searching the market for a new striker, given that Santiago Gimenez is the only centre-forward left at the manager’s disposal. Milan are considering offering a defender for Juventus in exchange for Vlahovic. ............ Igor Tudor would like to work with Strahinja Pavlovic. However, Allegri is also intrigued by the 24-year-old Serbian, and prefers to keep him at Continassa. Therefore, Milan are more likely to offer the services of Malick Thiaw, as the 23-year-old isn’t considered a first choice by the Tuscan manager. ............ .

Juventus optimistic about signing Atletico Madrid wantaway – Weah holds the key Juventus are growing increasingly confident in their chances of landing Atletico Madrid right-back Nahuel Molina this summer. The Bianconeri are expected to complete the signing of Porto’s Joao Mario later on Thursday, as the Portuguese has already arrived at the J|Medical Centre to undergo his medical tests. ............ The 27-year-old is tied to Atletico with a contract valid until 2027. However, the Spanish capital side have recently acquired the services of Marc Pubill, which could make the Argentinian surplus to requirements. ............ Nevertheless, the World Cup winner wouldn’t come cheap, as the Colchoneros have slapped a €30 million price tag on his back. Therefore, Juventus would only be able to sign the Argentina international by selling one of their own. At this point, the main candidate remains Timothy Weah, who is seemingly on his way out of the club after falling down the pecking order. ............ Once Weah is offloaded, Juventus should have the means to launch an onslaught for Molina who has been on their shortlist since his time at Udinese between 2020 and 2022. During his Italian spell, the wingback made 68 appearances for the Zebrette, contributing with 10 goals and as many assists. .

Douglas Luiz: Juventus to take disciplinary measures and sell midfielder Juventus are set to take disciplinary measures after Douglas Luiz failed to report for the first day of pre-season, which will also lead to his summer departure. Juventus midfielder Douglas Luiz didn’t show up for the first day of pre-season on Thursday. ............ Douglas Luiz was never a regular starter under Igor Tudor or his predecessor Thiago Motta and only played for 45 minutes in the recent Club World Cup. ............ The former Aston Villa midfielder is clearly seeking a way out of the Allianz Stadium and has been linked with several Premier League clubs already. His agent is expected to meet with several English clubs this week. In the meantime, Juventus aim for a €40m sale to avoid a capital loss. .

Joao Mario set for Juventus medical in swap deal with Porto Porto FC defender João Mario is set to undergo medical tests with Juventus tomorrow, finalising a player-plus-cash swap deal involving Alberto Costa. Juventus will welcome the new signing on Thursday. ............ João Mario will move to Turin from Porto in a player-plus-cash swap deal involving Alberto Costa, who will join the Portuguese club, returning to his native country after just seven months in Turin. João Mario has been valued €10m, while Porto will pay €15m plus €1m add-ons for Alberto Costa. ............ Porto’s domestic rivals Sporting CP had been in talks with Juventus for Alberto Costa earlier this summer, but failed to reach an agreement with the Bianconeri. .

Not just Bremer – Another five Juventus stars return early from summer vacation Although the pre-season will officially kick off on Thursday, six Juventus players have already reported to Continassa. The Bianconeri’s off-season was shortened by their participation in the FIFA Club World Cup in the United States. ............ As reported earlier this week, Bremer made an early appearance in Turin, returning from his vacation prematurely as he’s hellbent on regaining his optimal physical condition after more than nine months on the sidelines. ............ The 28-year-old has been making important leaps in his recovery path, and he’s looking to take part in the first summer friendly against Reggiana next week. Hence, he insisted on making a swift return to Continassa and working on a personalised program before rejoining group training when the camp begins. But Bremer wasn’t the only Juventus player to report early to training, as Lloyd Kelly, Juan Cabal, Mattia Perin, Fabio Miretti, and Nicolò Savona have also returned to the club’s facility. ............ Cabal suffered a similar injury to Bremer last November while on international duty, so he still has some work to do before returning to the field. As for Perin, he missed the Club World Cup as he had to undergo surgery to repair the damage in his hand. The same goes for Miretti who’s healing from a shoulder operation after hurting himself during his loan stint at Genoa. Moreover, Kelly and Savona picked up knocks during the tournament, and could be out action for the next few weeks. .

Sabatini explains why Comolli is ‘better than Giuntoli’ Italian journalist Sandro Sabatini believes that new Juventus General Director Damien Comolli is an upgrade on Cristiano Giuntoli. ............ Juventus replaced the departing director with Comolli, and even entrusted him with more responsibilities, hand him the title of ‘General Director’. Contrary to Giuntoli, the Frenchman has been taking things relatively slowly on the market, refusing to conduct another summer transfer frenzy. ............ The Italian TV presenter believes that Comolli has already proved to be an upgrade on Giuntoli, despite the lack of action on the market. “Juventus is trying to make up for a transfer market that cost €200 million last year, but despite the big cost, the team is weaker than it was a year ago.” “But now I see a transfer market full of good intentions. They’re doing a better job. Comolli, in my opinion, is better than Giuntoli, but we’ll see what happens in the end. It’s still early days.” ............ “The starters are Conceicao on one side and Yildiz on the other. Sancho has missed a lot of chances, in my opinion he wouldn’t start at Juventus.” .

Who is new Juventus defender Joao Mario? Porto FC defender João Mario is set to join Juventus on a permanent transfer. Let’s find out more about the new Bianconeri signing. João Mario, 25, is set to join Juventus for €10m from Porto, while Alberto Costa will join the Portuguese club for €16m including add-ons. João Mario will undergo medical tests with the Old Lady on Thursday. A product of the Porto Academy, João Mario made 181 appearances at a senior level with the Portuguese giants and has three appearances with the Portugal national team. ............ João Mario is 178 cm tall and is quite skilled with both his right and left feet. Despite that, he’s always played on the right flank, either as a right-back or a right wing-back, which is where Igor Tudor is expected to deploy him. ............ The Portuguese defender netted five goals at a senior level with Porto. ............ Stats suggest João Mario has an attacking attitude, as he averaged only 0.4 interceptions per game in 2024-25, one tackle per game, and 2.9 ball recoveries. The Portuguese seems quite fit, having missed just four games due to injuries in 2024-25. ............ . Read more -> https://football-italia.net/who-is-new-juventus-defender-joao-mario/

Done deal: Juventus & Porto set to complete double deal – Figures revealed Juventus and Porto have reached an agreement over the double transfer of Joao Mario and Alberto Costa. ............ Juventus and Porto have already agreed on every detail, with the two players flying to complete their respective medicals. ............ This won’t be treated as a swap deal, but rather two separate transfers. Juventus will receive €16 million for Costa who had only joined the club in January, completing a €13 million switch from Vitoria Guimarães. ............ On the other hand, Juventus will pay Porto €12 million for Mario, who also plays as a right-back, and is expected to be used as a right wingback in Tudor’s 3-4-2-1 formation. The 25-year-old first joined Porto’s youth academy at the tender age of 8. He went through every age group before becoming a member of the first team in 2020. ............ .

Juventus winger undergoing medical in Germany ahead of imminent transfer Juventus youngster Samuel Mbangula is currently undergoing his medical tests before signing his contract with Werder Bremen. The Belgian spent time in the academies of the two biggest clubs in his native country, namely Club Brugge and Anderlecht, before being poached by the Bianconeri in 2020. ............ Mbangula has been placed on the transfer list this summer. He was reportedly close to sealing a move to Nottingham Forest, but his entourage couldn’t agree on personal terms with the Premier League club. Nevertheless, Werder Bremen succeeded where Forest had failed, striking an agreement with both Juventus and the player. ............ Mbangula has already landed in Germany to finalise his transfer, and is now having his medical. The Bundesliga boys are expected to pay a transfer fee of €10 million, in addition to bonuses worth circa €3 million. This deal will generate significant capital gains for the Bianconeri who spent less than €500,000 to acquire the winger’s services five years ago. .

Questo in Arabia Saudita guadagna un sacco di soldi. Perché dovrebbe venire alla Juve per quattro spiccioli?

Official: Juventus sign Conceicao in permanent deal from Porto Juventus have officially announced the signing of winger Francisco Conceicao on a permanent deal from Porto after a successful loan spell in Turin during the 2024-25 campaign. The 22-year-old, who joined Juventus on a straight loan deal for the 2024-25 season, which was later extended until the end of the FIFA Club World Cup, has put pen to paper on a five-year contract with the Bianconeri, which will run until the summer of 2030. Juventus have confirmed that they have agreed to pay a total fee of €30.4m to Porto, which will be paid over four instalments. ............ He arrived back in Turin and completed his medical with Juventus earlier on Tuesday. ............ Conceicao provided six goals and seven assists from his 40 appearances across all competitions during his initial loan spell, which did not include an option to buy, despite Juventus deciding to purchase the player regardless. ............ .

Juventus wants Liverpool star but he costs too much Juventus are in the market for a new striker as it anticipates the departure of Dusan Vlahovic during the current transfer window. ............ One of the names now emerging as a target is Darwin Núñez of Liverpool. The Uruguayan striker came close to joining Napoli in recent weeks, having reportedly agreed personal terms with the Italian side. However, the deal ultimately collapsed after Napoli failed to reach an agreement with Liverpool regarding the transfer fee. With Liverpool still open to selling Núñez, Juventus may now have an opportunity to bring him to Turin. The Premier League side is considering signing Alexander Isak, and Núñez’s departure could be key to making room in their squad. The striker himself is said to be open to a move, having struggled to find consistent form in front of goal during his time in England. ............ The major obstacle for Juventus is Liverpool’s valuation of the player. The English club are demanding 60 million euros, a figure that currently exceeds Juventus’ budget for the position. Unless Liverpool lowers their asking price or Juventus is able to generate significant funds through sales, a deal may prove difficult to complete. There is little doubt within the Juventus camp that Núñez would strengthen the squad. His physical presence, work rate and attacking instincts could bring a new dynamic to the front line. However, the financial demands of such a move remain a considerable challenge. ............ . Read more -> https://www.juvefc.com/juventus-wants-liverpool-star-but-he-costs-too-much/

Juventus adds Atletico Madrid man to their shopping list Juventus are actively seeking to strengthen their defensive line this summer, with preparations underway for the potential departures of Alberto Costa and Timothy Weah. ............ With this in mind, Juventus are actively identifying replacements, and one of their key targets is Atletico Madrid’s Nahuel Molina. The Argentine full-back has fallen out of favour under Diego Simeone and is no longer considered a central figure in the Spanish side’s plans. ............ Juventus have renewed their interest in Molina, a player they previously tracked during his time at Udinese in Serie A. While no move materialised during his spell in Italy, the Bianconeri now view him as a realistic and valuable target to bolster their defence. A return to Italy could be on the cards for Molina, with Juventus reportedly keen to secure his signature in the coming weeks. The player’s experience in both Serie A and La Liga positions him well to make an immediate impact, should a transfer be completed. ............ .
