Serie A | Genoa 0-1 Juventus: Outcast Vlahovic decisive yet again Dusan Vlahovic came off the bench for another decisive Juventus goal, scraping victory in Genoa after the crossbar saved them in stoppages. ............ Khephren Thuram accidentally charged down a scorcher from teammate Joao Mario with his face in the opening minutes, leaving him rather dazed. ............ Juventus thought they simply had to score on 41 minutes when Kenan Yildiz rolled across from the left for Federico Gatti to sweep first-time from 10 yards, but Nicola Leali made an astonishing one-handed reaction save at the near post. Moments later, Leali got down incredibly quickly for another great save on the Kenan Yildiz angled drive, but Jonathan David fired the rebound over from seven yards. ............ It was Juventus who eventually broke the deadlock with transfer rebel Vlahovic, who again came off the bench to score a crucial goal. He was allowed a free header from six yards on the Filip Kostic corner, as Genoa’s zonal marking system failed. ............ Nico Gonzalez was introduced for a late swansong, as he is heading to Atletico Madrid, but Genoa were unlucky as Morten Thorsby just failed to connect with the fantastic Brooke Norton-Cuffy ball across the six-yard box. Genoa had two huge opportunities to equalise deep into stoppages, as first Di Gregorio got down for a sensational one-handed save to palm the Caleb Ekuban curler round the base of the far post, then on the resulting corner Masini’s header bounced off the crossbar, the goalkeeper punching away the rebound.

Romano: Juventus & Atletico Madrid ‘very close’ to sealing Nico Gonzalez deal – Only one issue to resolve Juventus winger Nico Gonzalez is edging ever closer to Atletico Madrid, as the two clubs are about to finalise their agreement. This transfer has been in the air for quite some time, as the Bianconeri have no desire to keep the Argentinian winger following an underwhelming first season at the Allianz Stadiun, while the Spanish capital side is determined to give him the opportunity to revive his career under the guidance of his compatriot, Diego Simeone. ............ As reported earlier today, Atletico have presented Juventus with a concrete offer for Gonzalez, who only joined the Italian giants last season following a positive three-year spell at Fiorentina. According to Italian journalist Fabrizio Romano, the two clubs are now close to finding an accord for the 27-year-old’s transfer. As the transfer market insider reveals, Gonzalez would join Simeone’s ranks on loan with an option to buy at the end of the season, which would turn into an obligation under certain conditions. ............ The Rojiblancos must acquire the green light from LaLiga to successfully purchase the Argentine international. The Spanish top-flight league adopts rather stringent Financial Fair Play regulations, as it is not uncommon for LaLiga to prevent the registration of a player, as evidenced by Barcelona’s long-standing struggles with the regulatory committees. If Juventus managed to offload Gonzalez, they would turn to LOSC Lille winger Edon Zhegrova, whom they have identified as the best possible replacement for the role. ............ .

PSG refusing to change the formula as Kolo Muani talks with Juventus drags on Juventus have yet to receive the green light in their long and tiresome negotiations with Paris Saint-Germain for Randal Kolo Muani. The French striker has been on PSG’s books since making the move from Eintracht Frankfurt in the summer of 2023. However, he never truly found his niche in the City of Lights. ............ Juventus General Manager Damien Comolli has been trying to come up with a solution, with just over 24 hours separating us from the transfer deadline, he risks running out of time. In recent days, it has been suggested that the Serie A giants tried to change the formula, offering a loan with an option to buy, rather than an obligation, while raising loan fees. But PSG have now refused this proposal, as they insist on adding an obligation to buy. ............ According to Italian journalist Gianluca Di Marzio, Juve and PSG are still working on finding a solution, while Kolo Muani is refusing all other destinations. ............ .

“Open to negotiations” – Lille president give Juventus major Zhegrova boost Juventus now have a clear path to sign LOSC Lille winger Edon Zhegrova following the latest comments made by the president of the French club. The Bianconeri have already recruited the Kosovan’s former teammate, Jonathan David, but they didn’t have to negotiate a deal with the Ligue 1 side, as the Canadian had run down his contract before arriving in Turin as a free agent. ............ The good relations between the two clubs further flourished with the appointment of Damien Comolli as Juventus General Director, as the latter shares an amicable rapport with Lille president, Olivier Letang. ............ “Edon Zhegrova will not sign for Olympique Marseille,” insisted Letang in his interview following his club’s stunning 7-1 victory over Lorient. “However, if an offer comes in from another club, we are open to negotiations.” ............ .

Atletico Madrid finally submit a concrete offer for Juventus benchwarmer Juventus have reportedly received an official offer from Atletico Madrid for their unwanted winger Nicolas Gonzalez. The Argentine striker had only joined the Bianconeri a year ago, but his time in Turin could come to an end in the coming hours. ............ This summer, Igor Tudor didn’t omit Gonzalez from his plans. In fact, the manager gave him a cameo last weekend in the 2-0 win over Parma, and went on to praise him in his press conference ahead of Sunday’s encounter against Genoa. Nevertheles, the Juventus hierarchy made it clear that a sale is the preferred option, as it would allow the club to invest in an alternative who could prove more useful to the cause. In recent weeks, Atletico Madrid emerged as the ultimate frontrunners in the race. But while the two clubs have been in contact for quite some time now, their talks have been progressing at a slow pace. ............ “Atlético Madrid has made an official offer to Juventus for Nico Gonzalez,” posted the transfer market inside Matteo Moretto on his X account. “Contacts have been ongoing throughout the day with a view to reaching a final agreement in the coming hours. The player has been in full agreement with the club for days.” Moretto adds that Juventus will be looking to reinvest the sum they’re set to receive on wantaway Lille winger Edon Zhegrova. “Juventus wants Edon Zhegrova in his place. Negotiations are already underway.” ............ . Read more -> https://www.juvefc.com/atletico-madrid-offer-juventus-nico-gonzalez/

Genoa vs Juventus | Probable lineups: Two players vying to replace Cambiaso On Sunday evening, Juventus will play their first away fixture of the Serie A season, as they take on Genoa at the Luigi Ferraris Stadium. The match kicks off at 18:30 CET. After winning the opening-day contest against Parma by two unanswered goals, Igor Tudor will be looking to maintain the same starting lineup. Jonathan David, who broke the deadlock on his club debut, will once again spearhead the charge, keeping fellow opening-day goalscorer Dusan Vlahovic on the bench. The Canadian bomber will be supported by Francisco Conceicao and Kenan Yildiz. ............ In the middle of the park, club captain Manuel Locatelli should combine with Khephren Thuram, even though Teun Koopmeiners has been pushing for a starting berth. Gleison Bremer will be marshalling the backline, playing in between Federico Gatti and Lloyd Kelly, with Michele Di Gregorio in goal. Pierre Kalulu should be favoured over Joao Mario in the right wingback slot after competently filling in this role. ............ However, Tudor will be forced to make at least one change to the lineup, as Andrea Cambiaso saw red in the final minutes against Parma. The left-back lost his cool and elbowed his opponent in the face, earning himself a two-match ban. At this stage, Filip Kostic could be the favourite to replace the Italy international. ............ Genoa vs Juventus Probable lineups Genoa (4-2-3-1): Leali; Sabelli, Ostigard, Vazquez, Martin; Frendrup, Masini; Norton-Cuffy, Carboni (Malinovskyi), Stanciu; Colombo. Juventus (3-4-2-1): Di Gregorio; Gatti, Bremer, Kelly; Kalulu, Locatelli, Thuram, Kostic (McKennie); Conceicao, Yildiz; David .

Round 2: Genoa vs. Juventus match preview We are about to reach the tease of every new Serie A season, folks. “Why do you call it that?” you may be asking yourself. Well, this is why: We’re about to head into the second weekend of the 2025-26 season. And once Sunday passes, it’s the first international break of the new campaign. That means we get 180 minutes of Juventus being officially back in our lives and those results counting in the standings, and then we have to wait another two weeks for the next 90 minutes. (That one out of the September break sure is a big one, too.) ............ A lot like last season, Juventus head out on the road after a successful Matchday 1 in search of starting 2-for-2 and going into the first break of the new campaign with some good vibes. It comes against the same Genoa side that Igor Tudor managed his first game at Juventus after taking over for Thiago Motta last March, but this time it’s at the Luigi Ferraris rather than the friendly confines of the Allianz Stadium. This time, however, there is no interim tag attached to Tudor’s job status, with the former Juve defender now the full-time guy in charge of trying to get the Bianconeri to be a much more competitive side against both the top teams in Serie A as well as the potentially troublesome provincial clubs than they were under Motta. ............ “We know we’re facing an opponent that doesn’t give anything away easily and is also very organized,” Tudor said. “Playing at the Marassi is always challenging, so we’ll need to be at our best to get 3 points.” ............ So with their best defender back in the fold and looking a little bit like his old self again, Juventus head to genoa looking to keep them as quiet as they did against Parma a week ago. If Juve can do that, then there’s a good chance of Matchday 2 looking like Matchday 1. That’s a good way to go into the international break — especially with a big month of September looming on the horizon. TEAM NEWS Juventus will be without Genoa native Andrea Cambiaso, who will be serving the first half of his two-match ban for his red card against Parma last weekend. Cambiaso will also miss the Derby d’Italia that comes right after the September international break. When it comes to who steps in for Cambiaso, the Italian media believe that Filip Kostic has a slight edge over Weston McKennie for the starting spot as Juve’s wingback on the left wing. ............ Pierre Kalulu is being tipped by many in the Italian media to get his second straight start at right wingback. Tudor added that Kalulu “has shown perfect movement in midfield, providing solidity and concentration, qualities that help the whole team.” ............ Tudor said that Nico González, one of the last remaining players being linked with a potential exit ahead of Monday’s transfer deadline, is a player he has “always admired” and that he is “delighted to have him with us.” ............ JUVENTUS PLAYER TO WATCH Coming out of the first weekend of the Serie A season, there is one player who leads the league in assists. It’s a tall and handsome 20-year-old young man who just so happens to wear black and white a good amount of the time. So you probably guessed where we’re going with this. Let’s talk about Kenan Yildiz because there’s never really a bad time to do something like that. The season-opening win over Parma was Yildiz showing some of his best qualities. He was a threat with a head of steam behind him as he charged toward opposing defenders, setting up both goals Juve scored last Sunday night and staking claim to the title of being the only player in Serie A with two assists to his name after Matchday 1. ............ Or it could look a lot like what Yildiz has done in terms of production ever since Tudor took over as Juventus’ manager back in March. It looks a little something like this: Twelve total appearances 12 goal contributions (six goals and six assists) Something tells me that’s good. Probably because it is — and the kind of pace when it comes to both goals and assists that we all hope that Yildiz continues to produce as we head into the first big tests of the 2025-26 season adfter the September international break. ............ MATCH INFO When: Sunday, Aug. 31, 2025. Where: Stadio Luigi Ferraris, Genoa, Italy. Official kickoff time: 6:30 p.m. local time in Italy and across Europe, 5:30 p.m. in the United Kingdom, 12:30 p.m. Eastern time, 11:30 a.m. Central time, 9:30 a.m. Pacific time. ............ .

Genoa vs Juventus: Preview and Prediction ............ Igor Tudor was handed a longer contract than his short-term role when he was installed in place of the ineffective Thiago Motta last season. Having led Juventus to a Champions League finish, the Croatian manager also oversaw their Club World Cup campaign that saw them reach the Last 16 of the competition. However, with the new season already underway, Tudor ensured Juventus opened their Serie A account with a win over Parma. The victory took time to develop as Parma held their own for around an hour before new signing Jonathan David opened the scoring. Dusan Vlahovic then came off the bench to kill the game off with a crucial second strike as the Bianconeri collected the three points. There are some key challenges ahead for Juventus before they can express themselves thoroughly. For Tudor, establishing this team as an early contender for the title will be the aim, and he could push towards that objective by winning the upcoming tricky away encounter to Genoa. Team News & Tactics Genoa ............ Probable Lineup (4-2-3-1): Leali; Norton-Cuffy, Ostigard, Vasquez, Martin; Frendrup, Masini; Carboni, Stanciu, Gronbaek; Colombo Juventus Igor Tudor will have to contend with a few of his injured players, such as Fabio Miretti and Juan Cabal. Moreover, Andrea Cambiaso will miss out with a suspension following his sending off against Parma in the opening game. There are further issues in the defensive setup as Nicolo Savona has joined Nottingham Forest. Hence, Weston McKennie will be called into taking up a wing-back role in the lineup. Dusan Vlahovic is widely expected to leave the club before the transfer deadline, although he might feature on the bench, with new arrival Jonathan David expected to lead the line for Juventus once more. Federico Gatti, Gleison Bremer, and Lloyd Kelly are in the mix for the back-three setup. Khephren Thuram and Manuel Locatelli will be preferred in the central midfield role, while the in-form Kenan Yildiz and Francisco Conceicao will be in the slots behind the striker. Probable Lineup (3-4-2-1): Di Gregorio; Gatti, Bremer, Kelly; Kalulu, Thuram, Locatelli, McKennie; Conceicao, Yildiz; David Key Stats Juventus have kept a clean sheet in their last three matches against Genoa in all competitions. Juventus have won their last 3 matches in Serie A. Genoa have beaten Juventus only four times in their last 12 meetings on home soil. Genoa are without a win in their last four Serie A games. Player to Watch Jonathan David There are some late changes expected at Juventus when it comes to their attacking setup, with the club actively looking to offload Dusan Vlahovic and bring Randal Kolo Muani back from PSG. Irrespective of what transpires with those two forwards, Juventus may have already found the solution for their starting No.9 with the arrival of David. The Canadian striker opened his Serie A account in his first game for the club, and will want to add more to his tally during this trip to Genoa. He will be Juventus’s main man in the final third against Genoa, and Igor Tudor will hope for another top-draw performance from David. Prediction Genoa 1-2 Juventus Genoa will look to stifle Juventus in this home encounter, and they do have the capacity to keep the visitors at bay. However, the game will be decided based on the quality on the field, with Juventus certainly edging Patrick Vieira’s side in that regard. The opening day victory will have given Juventus some much required momentum heading into this clash, and they will secure the win. The Bianconeri are still susceptible to conceding an odd goal despite a formidable defensive setup; however, they are expected to take the three points in the end. .

Tudor reveals ‘no rejection’ of Nico Gonzalez at Juventus; warns Bianconeri about Genoa Juventus head coach Igor Tudor has urged his players to maintain their strong mentality as they prepare for Sunday’s tricky away clash against Genoa. ............ “It’s been a good week, the lads have worked very well and the atmosphere is positive,” Tudor said, “Tomorrow we need to deliver a great performance. Genoa do not give you anything for free, they run a lot and are tough and well organised. And we know about the stadium. We must do well if we want to take points.” ............ “It could have been better or worse but there are always going to be difficult matches. When the lads see the Champions League, everything changes. We enjoyed the draw together because we earned it with great sacrifice.” ............ “I’ve already explained what I needed to. The market is complicated, there are still two days left so we will see what happens. I am happy with the squad I have, sometimes consistency is undervalued.” ............ Tudor hinted at tactical flexibility, suggesting Juventus could adapt to a 3-5-2 with two strikers, including Dusan Vlahovic who was, for large swathes of the summer, linked heavily away from the club. Tudor also clarified that there had been “no rejection” of Argentine winger Nico Gonzalez, who the coach described as “a player of real quality.” ............ “Genoa are very organised, everyone runs. If we can match that, we have the quality to get a result. If we do not… then we will have problems.” . Read more -> https://football-italia.net/tudor-genoa-juventus-gonzalez-ucl/

Surprise name could replace Cambiaso for Genoa match Andrea Cambiaso is set to miss Juventus’ upcoming fixture against Genoa after receiving a red card in the recent match against Parma. His dismissal was undoubtedly a setback for the Bianconeri, yet the team demonstrated resilience and quality by still managing to secure victory. Despite that success, the absence of Cambiaso in the next matches represents a challenge that cannot be overlooked. ............ Genoa are expected to provide a difficult test, as matches between the two sides are rarely straightforward. Nevertheless, Juventus remain considered the stronger team and will approach the match with the belief that they can secure all three points. The task for Tudor lies in selecting a reliable option to cover Cambiaso’s absence and ensuring the balance of the squad is maintained. ............ Filip Kostic is currently regarded as the leading candidate to fill the role at left back. The report outlines that Kostic’s extensive experience makes him a dependable choice, particularly given his familiarity with the position. His versatility has often been an asset, and his ability to adapt ensures that Juventus can maintain both defensive stability and attacking threat from the left side. ............ .

Sono parole di circostanza per "arruffianarsi" i nuovi tifosi. Oppure intende il sogno di giocare in Premier. Ha peró anche dichiarato che la Juventus é casa sua. Il ragazzo non dimentica il passato. Bene. Buona fortuna Nicoló!

Basterebbe darlo in prestito all'Atletico, almeno ti liberi del suo stipendio e ricavi qualcosa. Alla fine Comolli potrebbe accettare la proposta degli spagnoli se vuole aggiungere Zhegrova o chi per lui alla rosa della Juventus. Tenerlo non ha senso visto che Nico vuole andare dal Cholo Simeone. Damiano pensaci!

Genoa boss insists Juventus is stronger than they were last year Genoa manager Patrick Vieira is preparing his side for a significant challenge as they take on a Juventus team that has been revitalised and strengthened under new leadership. The Bianconeri have undergone considerable improvement since Igor Tudor took charge, and the atmosphere around the club is now more positive compared to the difficulties of last season. ............ The arrival of Tudor has brought stability, organisation and renewed belief to Juventus. The squad is widely regarded as one of the most complete in Italy, boasting both established stars and emerging talents. With this strength, Juventus will not want to lose ground in the early stages of the season, and the clash against Genoa presents an opportunity to demonstrate their progress. Genoa, by contrast, approach the match with less expectation and therefore more freedom. Playing at home, they will aim to disrupt their opponents’ rhythm and exploit any weaknesses. However, Vieira himself has been clear in recognising that this Juventus side represents a tougher challenge than the one his team faced last season. ............ Speaking ahead of the game, Vieira said: “We all agree that Conceiçao on the right and Yildiz up front have quality. Collectively, this Juve is stronger than last year, and that’s why we must be ready to face a team that wants to win the league. In front of our fans, we’ve always performed well, even against big teams, and we want to try to win.” ............ .

Preview: Genoa vs Juventus - prediction, team news, lineups Having made a fine start to the new Serie A campaign, Juventus will head to Genoa for their first road trip of the season on Sunday. The Bianconeri claimed maximum points last weekend, when this week's hosts were held to a goalless draw at Stadio Luigi Ferraris. Match preview After penning Parma in for almost an hour, Juventus finally broke through via a cute finish from summer signing Jonathan David, who set his new club up for success on Serie A's opening matchday. Contract rebel Dusan Vlahovic then appeared from the bench to add a killer second, shortly after Andrea Cambiaso was senselessly sent off for violent conduct. It was a satisfactory start to a campaign that comes after another year of turmoil at the Turin club: they only scraped into fourth place last term after interim boss Igor Tudor impressively steadied the ship. Handed a longer contract, Tudor then led Juve into the Club World Cup - where they reached the last 16 - before following a shortened pre-season with victory over Parma. The Bianconeri have now lost just one of 10 Serie A matches under their Croatian coach, who posted win number 150 of his managerial career last weekend. Having also lost only once in 10 league meetings with Genoa - claiming maximum points last season - history suggests they can prevail at Marassi. ............ Genoa Serie A form: D Genoa form (all competitions): W D Juventus Serie A form: W Team News Juventus will be without versatile wing-back Cambiaso - who serves the first game of a two-match ban - plus injured duo Juan Cabal and Fabio Miretti, the latter of whom impressed on loan at Marassi last season. Nicolo Savona is set to join Nottingham Forest, so with Cambiaso unavailable, utility man Weston McKennie may be asked to fill in on the flank. As an endless contract saga has seen Vlahovic slip out of favour, David is set to lead the visitors' attack. Since March, Kenan Yildiz has recorded 11 goal involvements across all competitions - a high for any Serie A player during that period - and he should link up with David in the final third. ............ Genoa possible starting lineup: Leali; Norton-Cuffy, Ostigard, Vasquez, Martin; Frendrup, Masini; Carboni, Stanciu, Gronbaek; Colombo Juventus possible starting lineup: Di Gregorio; Gatti, Bremer, Kelly; Kalulu, Thuram, Locatelli, McKennie; Conceicao, Yildiz; David We say: Genoa 0-1 Juventus Juventus not only have a good record in Genoa, but they also showed some potential last weekend. Whether they are ready to mount a title challenge remains to be seen, but the Bianconeri should be more than capable of beating their Rossoblu rivals. .
