Is Comolli making it hard for Timothy Weah to leave Juventus? Timothy Weah has been widely expected to leave Juventus during the current transfer window, but the club are intent on maintaining control over the terms of his departure. Although several options have emerged, the Bianconeri remain firm in their stance regarding the conditions under which the American winger may exit. ............ Juventus may be reluctant to proceed due to Weah’s earlier rejection of the Nottingham Forest move. The report suggests that Damien Comolli is involved in attempting to facilitate the transfer, but Juventus are holding firm on their demands. The club are only willing to consider either a permanent transfer or a loan with an obligation to buy, and they have shown no willingness to reduce their terms. ............ This firm stance reflects Juventus’ determination to avoid compromising their position in the transfer market. By refusing to adjust their requirements, the club are sending a clear message that they will not be dictated to by players or other clubs. While Weah remains eager to join Marseille, Juventus continue to prioritise a deal that aligns with their strategic and financial interests. ............ .

Does Juventus have a plan for Daniele Rugani this season? Daniele Rugani spent the previous season on loan at Ajax before returning to Juventus in time to be part of their squad for the Club World Cup. His inclusion followed an unexpected decision by the club to offer him a new two-year contract prior to the start of last season, only to send him out on loan shortly after the agreement was signed. The defender, who has been with the Bianconeri since 2013, is now one of the most senior figures in the dressing room. ............ Juventus reportedly received an offer from FC Porto at the beginning of the current transfer window, as the Portuguese club expressed serious interest in securing Rugani’s services on loan. ............ However, Juventus opted not to sanction the move, a decision that has sparked debate about the club’s intentions for the player. ............ Nevertheless, if he remains in Turin, Rugani could still play an important part off the pitch. His experience and presence in the dressing room may be valued as Juventus aim to maintain stability and cohesion within the squad. ............ .

AC Milan sets a limit for how much they will spend on Vlahovic Juventus are aiming to sell Dusan Vlahovic during the current transfer window as they seek to ensure he is not part of their squad over the next twelve months. If they fail to move him on, the striker is expected to leave as a free agent next year, having earned a net of 12 million euros in the meantime. ............ AC Milan have emerged as the strongest contenders for his signature. The club are interested in securing a deal but only on their terms. Max Allegri, now involved with Milan, reportedly wishes to reunite with the forward and is pushing for the move. ............ This approach places Juventus in a difficult negotiating position. Milan is aware of the circumstances and is attempting to use them to their advantage as they aim to bring Vlahovic into their squad. Milan has made it clear that they will only offer half of the striker’s current salary. Furthermore, they have set a strict upper limit on the amount they are willing to pay in transfer fees. Milan is prepared to spend no more than 10 to 12 million euros to acquire him. Juventus now face a critical decision. While the financial return may fall short of expectations, holding on to Vlahovic risks losing him for nothing next summer. ............ .

Man Utd wants to hijack Juventus move for Sporting star Juventus are interested in signing Morten Hjulmand from Sporting Club, with the midfielder reportedly keen on a return to Serie A, where he previously featured for Lecce. The Danish international has made significant progress during his time in Portugal and has even captained his side on numerous occasions, demonstrating leadership qualities alongside technical ability. Juventus view Hjulmand as a strong candidate to reinforce their midfield and is eager to complete a deal promptly. ............ Despite mutual interest between player and club, Juventus face a major obstacle in the form of Sporting’s valuation. The Portuguese side is demanding a fee that currently exceeds what the Bianconeri can afford, creating a challenging situation for the Italian outfit. Sporting have not closed the door on a transfer, and the competition for Hjulmand’s signature is heating up. Manchester United have now entered the fray, further complicating Juventus’ pursuit of the player. ............ Should Manchester United pursue the move aggressively, they may well outpace Juventus, both in terms of resources and appeal. However, Juventus should not be discouraged. It remains possible that Hjulmand sees the Bianconeri as his preferred destination. Maintaining interest and continuing negotiations may yet prove fruitful if the midfielder is prioritising a return to Italy over a move to the Premier League. .

Il tizio si chiama Comolli?

Luca Toni tells Juve to sign Newcastle & Liverpool stars: “They’re missing something” Legendary Italian striker Luca Toni urges Juventus to bring two Premier League stars back to Italian soil, identifying them as the missing pieces in Igor Tudor’s jigsaw. ............ The 48-year-old was asked if he agrees with former Juventus midfielder Miralem Pjanic who advised the club to go all-in for Sandro Tonali, and it turned out that he is equally enthusiastic about the Newcastle United star, but is also in favour of bringing back Liverpool outcast, Federico Chiesa. “Yes, I’d take Tonali in an instant. He’s expensive, but he changes your midfield,” said the 2006 World Cup winner. “But if I were Juventus, I’d take Chiesa back on loan. He’s out of the Liverpool project, but I’d bet on his desire to redeem himself.” ............ “Juventus must step up their game if they want to get close to the top clubs and fight for the Scudetto. The departures of some key players are slowing down the Bianconeri’s transfer window, but if Vlahovic leaves, they’ll need two or three strong signings. “Right now, there’s a long way to go between Juventus and the Napoli-Inter duo. And Allegri’s Milan, lacking any major competition, will be able to focus solely on the league. The Bianconeri are missing something, but I’m convinced that Tudor will be able to compete eventually. . Read more -> https://www.juvefc.com/luca-toni-tells-juve-sign-tonali-chiesa/

“Porto fans celebrated” – Portuguese journalist reveals key difference between Alberto Costa & Joao Mario A Bola journalist, Pascoal Sousa, explains what Juventus and Porto gained by swapping the services of Alberto Costa and Joao Mario. ............ While Juventus remain unsure whether or not their club got the better deal, Sousa claims that the Porto fanbase rejoiced, as Costa has been a longtime target for their club, and they were also competing for his signature with their blood rivals, Sporting CP. “The deal was widely celebrated by Porto fans. Alberto was a highly sought-after player in January by both Porto and Sporting,” explained the Portuguese journalist in his interview. “He’s young, has great potential, and defends better than João Mário.” ............ “However, João Mário is stronger in attack, more experienced, and has provided many assists. I imagine a great partnership with Francisco Conceição. I think both sides benefit from the exchange. “João Mário won 11 trophies with Porto. He faded and, at the end of the campaign, as he needed a new and exciting challenge. Juve could be the right opportunity to help him return to the national team. “He’s a winner. He’s humble, hard-working, and intense on the right flank. He developed as a winger, so he attacks better than he defends. His offensive intensity is his strong point. I believe he will win over Juve and the fans with his boldness in attack. He’s fearless and isn’t afraid of anything.” ............ .

Juventus could be forced to revitalise Rugani and Tiago Djalo Juventus are focusing their transfer strategy on the attack and midfield, so this could force Igor Tudor to use Tiago Djalò and Daniele Rugani in defence. It had been assumed going into pre-season that these two players would be on the way out, replaced by new signings, but the slow progress of their moves mean time is running short. ............ This also means potentially having to make the most of two players who had not been top of Tudor’s list. Rugani spent last season on loan with Ajax and was only called back to base early to participate in the FIFA Club World Cup. Now the versatile central defender, who turns 31 tomorrow, is becoming a genuine option for the Bianconeri to call upon. The same goes for Djalò, who has the benefit of being able to play in the centre, at right-back or left-back. ............ .

Juventus warned Hjulmand exchange plan doomed to failure Just as reports emerge Juventus could offer Douglas Luiz as part of the deal for Morten Hjulmand, Portuguese media immediately assure Sporting CP would turn it down. It is no secret that the midfielder is a primary transfer target for the Bianconeri, just as Sporting have been adamant they will not accept anything other than his €80m release clause. ............ However, A Bola immediately responded by insisting Sporting would have no intention of accepting a player exchange as part of any transfer. They are also well aware that Manchester United are ready to dive in with a much higher offer than the one Juventus could afford. ............ The Denmark international quickly became their captain and a key figure in the squad. . Read more -> https://football-italia.net/juventus-warned-hjulmand-exchange-plan-doomed/

Juventus latest on Douglas Luiz, Weah and Vlahovic departures Juventus continue to work on three major sales but each comes with its own unique obstacles to overcome. Douglas Luiz, Timothy Weah and Dusan Vlahovic are all in talks to leave the club and have been considered dispensable by the Bianconeri leadership. Luiz has interest from the Premier League, Weah is stuck between Juventus and Marseille and Vlahovic is in danger of being left on the fringes of the squad if he does not secure a departure. ............ A whole host of Premier League clubs have been linked with a move for Douglas Luiz. We covered reports this morning that claimed the Brazilian’s agents are set to meet in a crucial meeting with Juventus, as Everton, West Ham, Nottingham Forest and Manchester United have all been mentioned as potential suitors. ............ Reports last week suggested that the current stumbling block for Weah was the difference between the Bianconeri’s demands and what Marseille were prepared to offer. Juventus are standing firm on their demands of €20 million for the American forward, whilst Roberto De Zerbi’s Marseille are only prepared to pay €15 million at a maximum. ............ Dusan Vlahovic has been placed up for sale for Juventus. After signing for the Bianconeri in January 2022, for €70 million plus €10 million in bonuses, the Serbian forward has failed to truly dazzle in Turin. Milan have emerged as favourites to sign the player and last week reports claimed the player’s agent was set to meet with Juventus and the Rossoneri in key talks. ............ .

Douglas Luiz apologised to Juventus for unacceptable absence Douglas Luiz reportedly apologised to Juventus, coach Igor Tudor, and his teammates, so was welcomed back to training after going AWOL last week. The midfielder had been fined and put on the transfer market following his surprising decision not to turn up to pre-season tests as scheduled last Thursday. ............ Douglas Luiz arrived in Turin this morning with his agents for a crisis meeting with Juventus directors. The result of this encounter was the player apologising to everyone involved. That includes the Juventus chiefs, coach Tudor and his teammates, before being allowed to return to full training. ............ .

Peró mi sembra che Tudor avesse chiesto a Comolli di avere giá la squadra quasi al completo per il raduno. Che finaccia

Juventus can offer Arthur to Sporting in move for Morten Hjulmand Serie A giants Juventus have been keeping a close eye on Sporting’s Morten Hjulmand and can now offer Arthur in a move for the midfielder. ............ The Bianconeri want to assess the situation of Hjulmand this week and understand Sporting’s asking price. The ex-Lecce player is keen on joining Juve and is convinced that a deal can be done for €40 million. This is giving the Old Lady hope and Damien Comolli should speak to the Portuguese club about Hjulmand soon. But Juve’s idea to seek a discount is by offering Arthur, who is also being looked at by Real Betis. Sporting will be offered a chance to sign the midfielder. ............ .

Juventus aren’t giving up on trying to sign Randal Kolo Muani just yet When it comes to negotiating for the services of Randal Kolo Muani, Juventus and Paris Saint-Germain appear to be stuck in the same kind of circle they can’t get out of. We hear the teams are going to talk, those talks happen, and then we’re left at the same kind of impasse that we’ve been stuck at for over a month or so now — wondering if either side will budge when it comes to how they want the deal to be structured. So far, Kolo Muani is still very much somebody Juventus want to sign this summer. And, as far as we can tell, he has rejected all other approaches — mainly from the riches of the Premier League — because his top hope is to ensure that his stay at Juventus goes beyond the now-completed Club World Cup. ............ PSG, understandably, don’t want to see Kolo Muani — who has reported for preseason training with the European champions earlier this week — for a serious loss on the books after investing such a massive transfer fee in him two summers ago. That would mean an option or obligation to buy worked into the deal that is no less than €40 million. ............ At this point, there is no reason for Kolo Muani to stay in Paris. He doesn’t want to stay there and PSG manager Luis Enrique has made no desire to work him back into the squad after his initial loan spell with Juventus during the second half of the 2024-25 season. He’s still very much out of the project, and that is an opportunity that Juve and new general manager Damien Comolli are hoping to take advantage of this summer. ............ .

Weah’s agent slams ‘vengeful’ Juventus director who’s ‘creating problems’ The agent of Timothy Weah roasted an unnamed Juventus director, accusing him of causing a stir on the market. ............ In recent weeks, Juventus have been negotiating Weah’s sale to Olympique Marseille, and this time, the winger is in favour of the move. But while the Ligue 1 giants are reportedly willing to pay €15 million (the same transfer fee that Juventus had accepted from Forest), the Bianconeri have raised their asking price to €20 million, with some reports claiming that this is due to Marseille refusing to sell them Leonardo Balerdi. Therefore, Weah’s agent, Badou Sambague, slammed one particular Juventus director, blaming him for causing havoc with his vengeful ways. “Juventus is a fantastic club. The sporting department is run by three people. Two have class, and another is still finding his feet, so we can’t blame him,” said the agent. “Two are looking for solutions, and one is creating problems. And we can’t allow that. Tim Weah, always a professional, was left out during the World Cup. This person ruined his World Cup campaign, trying to force him to go where he wanted. “Today, out of revenge, he’s demanding a fortune and waiting for an offer from the Premier League that will never arrive, one that we will never approve. These are antiquated methods that I can’t stomach. “I’m not used to speaking out, but not doing so today would be tantamount to accepting an unacceptable and total lack of respect. Class can’t be bought for a manager, that’s for sure, but it’s always been part of Juventus’ history. One person is undermining it. Let’s see.” ............ .

“Never good” – Pjanic tells Vlahovic to avoid a scenario by all means necessary Former Juventus midfielder Miralem Pjanic warns Dusan Vlahovic about an unpleasant fate he must avoid by making the right decision this summer. ............ Some believe that the Serbian bomber would be happy to remain in Turin and see out his contract while collecting his big paycheck. Nevertheless, Pjanic urges Vlahovic to avoid this scenario, as spending a year on the sidelines would be too damaging for his career. “Dusan is no longer a young player, as he has a certain amount of experience,” said the former Roma, Juventus and Barcelona midfielder in his interview. “These are personal choices, certainly not easy situations to deal with, but they are part of football. Vlahovic needs to regain his composure and score goals, something he has often done. “But more importantly, he needs to play. I respect him and consider him a friend. So I should tell him that losing a year is never a good thing.” ............ Nevertheless, the 35-year-old admitted that leaving Juventus is always difficult. “I know what it’s like at Juventus. So it’s hard to find a better place.” Pjanic donned the black-and-white shirt between 2016 and 2020. He ended up joining Barcelona on a swap deal that saw Arthur Melo heading in the opposite direction. ............ . Read more -> https://www.juvefc.com/pjanic-vlahovic-juventus-avoid-scenario/

Juventus devise clever plan to beat Inter Milan for Serie A wonderkid Juventus are plotting a creative strategy to overtake Inter in the race to sign Parma Youngster Giovanni Leoni. The 18-year-old has been on the Bianconeri’s shortlist since the 2023/24 campaign when he made his breakthrough at Sampdoria in Serie B. ............ At the start of the summer, Inter emerged as Leoni’s staunchest suitors, trying to reunite Cristian Chivu with his Parma pupil. ............ The Old Lady is looking to convince Parma with a clever proposal. While Inter are aiming to bring the Italian teenager to Appiano Gentile this summer, Juventus are willing to let him linger at Parma for another year in return for a slight discount on his current €40 million price tag. In other words, the Bianconeri would buy Leoni this summer for a figure in the region of €35 million and allow him to further develop his game with the Crociati, before arriving in Turin in the summer of 2026. ............ .

Juventus reach agreement in principle with top midfield target Juventus have reportedly agreed on personal terms with the entourage of Sporting CP captain Morten Hjulmand. ............ In recent weeks, Hjulmand has emerged as the Old Lady’s preferred target. The club’s General Director Damien Comolli has identified him as the ideal candidate for the role, thanks to his well-rounded game, and Serie A experience, dating back to his time at Lecce. ............ The Turin-based giants have been negotiating a deal with Hjulmand’s agents, and the two parties have been able to reach an agreement in principle. The Dane now has a five-year deal awaiting him at Continassa, with a net salary of €3.2 million. Nevertheless, the main hurdle blocking the transfer is an accord between the two clubs. After all, Sporting consider Hjulmand an elemental part of their plans, and have no desire to deprive themselves of the skipper’s services. It has been previously reported that the Lisbon-based giants would only sell the 26-year-old for the full value of his release clause (€80 million), but several sources are now claiming that the club is willing to negotiate a more sensible figure, and they could even drop their asking price to €40 million, a sum that Juventus would be happy to meet. ............ .

Boost for Juventus as long-time injured player is finally ready to return Juventus have received delightful news from the infirmary, as Juan Cabal is reportedly ready and raring to go. ............ Cabal’s devastating incident occurred just over a month following Gleison Bremer’s similar injury. Hence, both defenders ended up spending the vast majority of the 2024/25 campaign on the sidelines. But as reported in recent weeks, the Brazilian centre-back is on the cusp of making his greatly anticipated return to the pitch, while his Colombian teammate isn’t too far behind. Cabal has already rejoined his Juventus teammate in group training on the first days of pre-season. ............ Cabal’s return would be a major boost for Igor Tudor, as he’s capable of occupying two roles in his 3-4-2-1 tactical system. The former Verona man can either play as left wingback, or a left centreback. On the left flank, the Croatian boss is expected to rely on Andrea Cambiaso as his first-choice wingback, while Filip Kostic could end up lingering in Turin to add some depth to the squad. ............ .

Mourinho offers a Fenerbahce star in exchange for Douglas Luiz Fenerbahce boss Jose Mourinho is reportedly hellbent on signing Douglas Luiz that he’s willing to offer Juventus the services of Sofyan Amrabat. ............ Luiz’s most likely destination remains the Premier League. However, Mourinho is trying his best to lure the Brazil international to Istanbul. The Special One will also try to tempt the Bianconeri by offering Amrabat in an exchange deal. The Morocco international might not be a primary target for Juventus, but he has been mentioned as one of the names on the shortlist. The Serie A giants have identified Morten Hjulmand as their priority target to bolster the middle of the park, but they have also set their sights on some other more affordable options, including Amrabat. The 28-year-old has vast experience in Serie A, having represented Hellas Verona and Fiorentina between 2019 and 2023. ............ .

Striker turns down Man Utd as he holds out for Juventus move Paris Saint-Germain’s wantaway star Randal Kolo Muani has given his clear preference to Juventus despite interest from Manchester United. ............ Juventus have been negotiating a deal with PSG for several weeks, but have to find a definitive agreement. Nevertheless, Italian journalist Orazio Accomando expects the Bianconeri to keep pushing until they reach the finish line, while explaining how the formula will differ from last season’s dry loan. “Juventus are trying, because Kolo Muani has now become the number one target for the club in attack, having already secured the signing of Jonathan David,” insisted Accomando. “Juventus are trying everything they can to keep Kolo Muani in their squad, who, as we know, has begun pre-season training with Paris Saint-Germain. “Juventus could offer a new loan, but not a dry loan like last January’s, but with an option or obligation to buy.” ............ “There is already a basic agreement between Juventus and the player who is also pushing for the move. “From what we learned, he has said no to interest from Manchester United. At least at this stage, he wants to first understand if there is the possibility of returning to Juventus.” . Read more -> https://www.juvefc.com/kolo-muani-turns-man-utd-holds-juventus/

Juventus left concerned by new Man United stance on Jadon Sancho The latest statements made by Manchester United boss Ruben Amorim may have caused some concern at Juventus who are still keen to sign Jadon Sancho. ............ However, Amorim’s words in his press conference in New Jersey raised many eyebrows, including some in Turin. While it was initially thought that there was no way back for the four outcasts, the Portuguese boss insisted that he’d be happy to welcome them back to the fold if they could not find themselves new clubs. “Some players have to move to make space in the team, others want a new challenge. We are giving them time to think, and if they reach a point where they have to join the team, they will,” said the 40-year-old. ............ The message conveyed by Amorim left Juventus worried, as it suggests that Man Utd might not be as desperate to sell Sancho as initially thought. The Turin-based newspaper reveals that the Bianconeri’s offer of £15 million is only a few million below United’s asking price, while the 25-year-old has agreed to accept a significant pay cut from €10m to €6m to facilitate the transfer. ............ .

Juventus insist on key condition in negotiations with Marseille for Tim Weah Juventus and Olympique Marseille are still working on finding an agreement for the transfer of Timothy Weah. ............ While Weah and his entourage weren’t interested in joining the Premier League club Nottingham Forest, they have been much more enthusiastic about the opportunity to return to France through the gates of Marseille. After all, OM have been building an interesting project with Roberto De Zerbi in charge, and have managed to qualify for the Champions League. ............ However, the two clubs have yet to reach a definitive agreement, so Weah is currently training with his Juventus teammates at Continassa. The Ligue 1 giants are hoping to acquire the winger on loan with an option to buy, while the Bianconeri are refusing to let him leave on a deal that doesn’t include an obligation to buy. Moreover, other sources had claimed that Juventus are gunning for a transfer fee worth €20 million, while Marseille have only offered €15 million. So while the two clubs have made some progress in their talks, the agreement doesn’t seem to be as close as previously reported. ............ .
