Juventus make first move for Lecce talent Tiago Gabriel amid Brentford competition

 

 

Juventus have opened initial talks for Tiago Gabriel, the 2004-born Lecce defender who has rapidly become one of the most sought-after young prospects in Serie A.

 

The Portuguese centre-back has now been placed firmly among the Bianconeri’s priority targets for the upcoming transfer windows. ............

 

However, Juve are far from alone. Several Premier League clubs have been tracking Tiago Gabriel for months, with Brentford reportedly ready to table an offer in the region of €20 million: a figure that could complicate the plans of Italian sides hoping to keep him in Serie A.

 

To stay competitive in the race, Juventus are considering adding a technical counterpart to their proposal. One of the most concrete options, per the report, is the inclusion of Vasilije Adzic on loan.

 

The young Juve midfielder has already been monitored by Lecce in the past, and his arrival could make the operation more appealing to the Salentini. ............

 

For now, the ball is with Lecce, but Juventus appear determined to put themselves in a strong position. ............

Two reasons why Xhaka’s Juventus move is unlikely

 

 

Granit Xhaka has been linked with a January move to Juventus, but the Swiss midfielder is happy at Sunderland, and the Bianconeri will be reluctant to make a big investment for a player who is well over 30, reports Alfredo Pedullà. ............

 

“Xhaka is happy at Sunderland, and I’m not sure Juventus can invest so much money in a player who is no longer young,” Pedullà said.

 

“Juventus will decide later on what to do. They must hire a new sporting director; there’s still a bit of confusion.” ............

 

“I expect Spalletti to switch to a four-man defence, a 4-3-3 system,” he added.

 

“From now on, I expect to see Spalletti’s hands, earning many points and showing the coach’s identity.” ............

Juventus on alert as Brozovic could be heading towards free agency

 

 

Juventus are reportedly keeping close tabs on the Marcelo Brozovic transfer saga, as Al-Nassr are struggling to lock him down with a new deal.

 

The midfielder spent eight years at Inter, before following Cristiano Ronaldo to the Saudi giants in the summer of 2023. ............

 

The contract talks between Brozovic and Al-Nassr have stalled, with the two parties unable to find an accord.

 

The Saudi Pro League giants would like to keep the experienced midfielder, but only on a reduced salary.

 

Therefore, the Croatian is reluctant to accept, although he feels fairly comfortable in Saudi Arabia. Brozovic could thus consider some of his other options, which may include Juventus, who are reportedly monitoring the situation.

 

The former Dinamo Zagreb star arguably hit his peak when he worked under Luciano Spalletti at Inter between 2017 and 2019. ............

 

While Brozovic’s quality is undeniable, one might wonder if he still has what it takes to cope with the pace of one of the biggest leagues in Europe, not to mention the Champions League.

 

This has been a common concern regarding players who dwell too long in peripheral leagues. Even though the Saudi Pro League has been enjoying a meteoric rise since 2023, the pace and quality are not comparable to the Italian top flight. ............

Corvino confirms Juventus interest in Lecce defender, reveals when they can sign him

 

 

Lecce technical director Pantaleo Corvino revealed that Juventus are among several clubs vying for the signature of Tiago Gabriel.

The Bianconeri are currently monitoring several young centre-backs, and the Portuguese is one of the profiles reported to be on Damien Comolli’s shortlist.

 

The 20-year-old is a Sporting CP youth product who had experiences at Setubal and Estrela Amadora before joining Lecce in January 2025. ............

 

He has thus far made 11 appearances in Serie A, including 10 as a starter, and scored a goal in the process. ............

 

“Many people like Tiago Gabriel, not just Juve,” said the experienced director in his interview.

 

“The lad is strong, we had patience and luck. But be careful: he’s staying here for the season. We considered him too important for our objectives; we mustn’t lose sight of him.”

 

Gabriel’s contract with Lecce is valid until June 2027, but both parties have the option to trigger a two-year extension. ............

Juventus and Man Utd will fight for impressive teenage striker

 

 

Mohamed Kader Meïté has developed a reputation as one of the finest youngsters in France, and Juventus are reportedly monitoring the Rennes teenager. The 18-year-old has been in excellent form over the last few seasons and has shown consistent development, attracting attention from several top European clubs.

 

Juve see Meïté as an ideal addition to their first team due to his youth, potential, and evident hunger to succeed. ............

 

The attacker is reportedly being followed by several other prominent clubs, with Manchester United among them, which is expected to provide significant competition for Juventus. The Premier League side is investing heavily in its squad and has identified Meïté as a player it would like to secure, meaning that the Bianconeri will face a serious challenge in any potential transfer. ............

 

Should Meïté join Juventus, he would enter a system known for integrating young talent into the first team, offering him the platform to develop and perform at the highest level. At 18 years old, his trajectory suggests that he could make a significant impact if given the right environment, which Juventus are well-placed to provide. ............

Parma will demand a huge fee if Juventus insists on their player

 

 

Adrián Bernabé is reportedly one of the players Juventus are keen to sign during the January transfer window, and the midfielder himself may be open to the move. He has established himself as one of Parma’s most important players, but the prospect of joining a larger Italian club is likely to be appealing.

 

The Bianconeri are currently assessing how to strengthen their midfield, and Bernabé has emerged as a prime target. However, a transfer for the player could prove complicated. ............

 

Parma consider Bernabé too important to sell during the winter window. Nevertheless, the report emphasises that every player has a price, and if Juventus continue to pursue the midfielder, the club is likely to demand a substantial fee for his services. This could make a January move challenging, and the Bianconeri may have to weigh whether it is worth meeting Parma’s valuation.

 

If an agreement cannot be reached in the winter, Juventus may have to wait until the summer to make a serious bid. Conversely, if they find an alternative solution to their midfield needs during the campaign, the urgency to sign Bernabé in the summer could diminish. ............

 

Over the next few weeks, it is expected to become clearer whether Juventus will make a concerted effort to secure Bernabé’s signature during the January window. ............

Ederson back on the Juventus wish list amid Atalanta uncertainty

 

 

 

Atalanta midfielder Ederson is again being linked with a possible January offer from Juventus, as his contract is due to expire in June 2027.

 

The Brazil international had already been a target for several clubs over the summer, including Manchester United, Chelsea and Inter. ............

 

They are boosted by the fact that there is still no progress in working out a new contract beyond the current deal, which only runs to June 2027.

 

Juve’s first choice is Sandro Tonali, but Newcastle United have no intention of letting the Italy international leave, and certainly not mid-season. ............

 

Juventus would need to pay the full asking price for Ederson, who is seen as a replacement for Manuel Locatelli in Luciano Spalletti’s midfield.

 

That is going to be at least €50m. ............

Juventus is watching a Ligue 1 centre-back

 

 

 

Juventus have been linked with a move for Charlie Cresswell as the defender continues to impress in Toulouse’s first team. The Englishman has emerged as one of the strongest performers in the French top flight over recent seasons, and his consistent displays have attracted the attention of several leading European clubs. Many believe he would fit seamlessly into a more demanding environment, and Juventus have now joined the growing list of admirers. ............

 

Juventus have been tracking Cresswell for some time, and the men in black and white may consider making a formal approach when the transfer window reopens. His performances have attracted interest not only from Italian clubs but also from several teams in England, emphasising the growing recognition of his ability at the highest level. Juventus will feel encouraged by the fact that Comolli previously worked at Toulouse and continues to maintain strong links with the Ligue 1 club, something that could provide a valuable advantage should negotiations begin. ............

 

For Cresswell, the opportunity to test himself at one of the most prominent clubs in Europe would undoubtedly be an attractive step in his career. The prospect of playing in a challenging league, supported by an experienced defensive unit, could accelerate his adaptation to life at the Allianz Stadium. Lloyd Kelly, who already possesses familiarity with the demands of top-level football, would be able to assist him in settling quickly and adjusting to the expectations placed on Juventus defenders. ............

Romano pours cold water on rumours about Juventus re-signing former player

 

 

 

Juventus have been linked with a possible reunion with Joao Cancelo as the Bianconeri continue to explore options to strengthen their squad ahead of the January transfer window. The men in black and white have struggled at the start of the season, having failed to capitalise on their chances, and they have already made a managerial change in an attempt to correct their form. Luciano Spalletti is now the gaffer responsible for guiding the team back to consistency and helping them rediscover their identity. ............

 

Cancelo has emerged in reports as a potential option. The Portuguese full-back previously delivered impressive performances during his first spell in Turin, which makes the idea of a return appear sensible on the surface. His creativity and energy down the flank could offer Spalletti a valuable tactical solution. However, the likelihood of such a transfer remains limited according to the latest information. ............

 

Fabrizio Romano has addressed the rumours and made it clear that a move is improbable. He said, “Cancelo’s return to Juventus? It’s been rumoured, but I do not see them working on his return. There’s no talk between the club and Mendes about the player, his salary is outside of Italian standards. He’d have to accept a different salary to return to Juventus or, more generally, to Serie A.”

 

This clarification highlights the main obstacle, which is the financial commitment required to bring Cancelo back. Juventus, like most Italian clubs, are operating within strict budgetary limits, and the defender’s current wages exceed what they are prepared to offer. ............

Journalist explains Juventus approach to the January market

 

 

 

Juventus is widely expected to strengthen its squad during the January transfer window, as the Bianconeri are still considered short of the overall quality required to achieve their main objectives. With a new manager guiding the team, there is an understanding that he may struggle to deliver the desired results if he is not provided with players suited to his preferred system. As the window approaches, Luciano Spalletti will almost certainly have identified the profiles he believes are essential for immediate improvement. ............

 

Juve has continued to support their managers with new additions in recent months, and there is little indication that this policy will change. The club maintains its position as one of Europe’s leading teams, and sustaining such a reputation demands careful planning and consistent investment. If the leadership fails to back the coach, it would undermine their ability to expect enhanced performances when they are required later in the campaign. Consequently, the club is working with determination to ensure the squad remains competitive, balanced and capable of responding effectively to tactical demands. ............

 

This intention has been highlighted through new insight into Juventus’ plans for the upcoming window. Journalist Niccolò Ceccarini has outlined the club’s priorities and provided a clearer picture of the direction being considered. He explained, “Just over a month until the transfer window opens, Juventus wants to tighten its focus on the midfielder. In recent months, Comolli and Modesto have analysed various profiles to strengthen the midfield. The ideas are for the present but also for the future. In January, the goal would be to bring in a player who can be ready immediately. The latest possibility concerns Brozovic, whom Spalletti already had during his time at Inter.” ............

Why Juventus have doubts about bringing Brozovic back to Serie A

 

 

Juventus might be desperate for midfield reinforcement, but they reportedly have their reservations about Marcelo Brozovic.

 

The Bianconeri’s lack of depth and quality in the middle of the park has been one of the team’s most glaring issues since the start of the season, as Damien Comolli and Co. failed to address this department last summer. ............

 

Since finding top-notch profiles available in January can be a daunting task, Juventus have been considering various solutions. Some even claimed the club might contemplate re-signing 35-year-old Miralem Pjanic, who is currently a free agent.

 

Moreover, Brozovic is one of the names that have been heavily linked to Juventus, despite his renowned past at Inter. ............

 

The Croatian had been playing his trade at Al-Nassr since the summer of 2023. However, his contract with the Saudi Pro League giants will expire at the end of the season. ............

 

But Comolli has his doubts about signing Brozovic.

 

The player’s age isn’t the main issue, but rather the fact that he’s been playing his football in a slower league for more than two years now.

 

Hence, the Juventus CEO is unsure about Brozovic’s ability to cope with the pace of the Italian top flight, not to mention the Champions League. ............

Juventus is fighting alongside Chelsea and Bayern Munich for Serie A star 

 

 

Mike Maignan is set to leave AC Milan as a free agent at the end of this season, and several top clubs are reportedly interested in securing the services of the French goalkeeper, including Juventus. Since joining Milan, Maignan has established himself as one of the world’s best goalkeepers, and his impending departure is expected to spark significant competition in the transfer market. As he runs down his contract, a serious battle for his signature is already emerging, highlighting both his quality and his value to potential suitors.

 

AC Milan views Maignan as a key component of their squad and is keen to retain him. However, contract negotiations have stalled, leaving the club at risk of losing one of its most important players without a transfer fee. The goalkeeper was blocked from joining Chelsea in the summer, but the Blues remain interested in a potential move. ............

 

Bayern Munich are the club that might pose the greatest challenge to Juventus in the race for Maignan. The Bavarian side are reportedly looking for a long-term replacement for Manuel Neuer, who could be on his way out, and see Maignan as an ideal candidate. ............

 

Juventus face an additional challenge in persuading Maignan, having only recently signed Michele di Gregorio as their long-term first choice. ............
