Juventus interested in Lille winger Edon Zhegrova

 

 

As Juventus look to be relatively close to securing their first signing in weeks with the (re-)addition of Randal Kolo Muani from Paris Saint-Germain, it appears as though the Bianconeri could very well be trying to do a little more shopping in Ligue 1 before the summer mercato comes to a close in a couple of weeks. ............

 

According to Fabrizio Romano on Sunday, Juventus have made contacts regarding a potential move for Lille winger Edon Zhegrova, who has been of particular interest of Olympique Marseille over the last couple of weeks. ............

 

Juventus are expected to meet with Zhegrova’s agents at some point next week to see if a move for the 26-year-old Kosovo international is truly possible, but also with the caveat that they will almost certainly need to sell first — namely Nico González — to facilitate something in the final days of the summer transfer window.

 

Zhegrova is currently in the final year of his contract at Lille and has previously stated that he doesn’t plan to renew his deal as he seeks a new club either this summer or next. He was not part of Lille’s squad for their season-opening 3-3 draw with Brest on Sunday. ............

 

Just how much Juventus might need to invest in a deal to secure Zhegrova is relatively unknown. While talks are “advanced” it’s hard to tell really just how close a deal between Lille and Marseille actually is. And with Juventus suddenly trying to meet with Zhegrova’s representatives next week, there’s obviously some kind of opening that Damien Comolli feels like he can try and get into by swooping in late and take advantage of Zhegrova still being on the market. ............

 

A teammate of new Juventus striker Jonathan David the past four seasons at Lille, Zhegrova is coming off a 2024-25 campaign in which he was unable to replicate the strong performances of the year prior. ............

Juventus launch onslaught for Ligue 1 star who could replace Nico Gonzalez

 

 

Juventus are working on offloading Nicolas Gonzalez while simultaneously trying to sign LOSC Lille winger Edon Zhegrova to replace him.

 

The 26-year-old is a German-Kosovan player who has been playing his trade at the Ligue 1 side since 2022.

 

The tricky winger struck a great attacking partnership with Jonathan David who recently joined the Bianconeri on a free transfer. ............

 

While the Canadian striker has already left Lille, Zhegrova should soon follow him to the exit door, especially after being excluded from the squad.

 

The French side is keen to avoid another free exit, so they’re determined to cash in on the Kosovo international this summer, before his deal expires in June 2026. ............

 

Juventus are serious about signing Zhegrova who is available for €20-25 million.

 

The Bianconeri will try to raise funds by selling Gonzalez to Atletico Madrid. Afterwards, they’ll be looking to bolster their flanks. ............

 

Juve has interest in LaLiga wingbacks Nahuel Molina and Arnau Martinez, but the management could be more enticed by Zhegrova, who represents a more attacking profile, one capable of offering Igor Tudor an alternative to Kenan Yildiz and Francisco Conceicao.

 

Juventus General Manager Damien Comolli will be looking to put his French connections to good use, as he tries to drive the asking price down through negotiations with Lille president Olivier Letang. ............

Zhegrova has agreement with Juventus

 

 

Kosovo international Edon Zhegrova has reached an agreement with Juventus, who have now entered talks with his club Lille. ............

 

The 26-year-old’s contract expires in June 2026 and the Serie A giants have reportedly reached an agreement over a €2.5m-a-year deal until 2030. ............

 

Zhegrova has already informed Lille that he won’t be signing a new deal beyond 2026, which will push the French side to discuss a permanent transfer this summer. ............

 

On paper, Lille’s asking price is €25m, but Zhegrova’s contract situation means the Bianconeri hope to sign the 26-year-old for €18/20m.

Juventus need to sell Nicolas Gonzalez to complete move for Zhegrova

 

 

Juventus has reportedly been holding discussions with Lille regarding the potential signing of Edon Zhegrova, seeing him as an ideal addition to their squad. The Kosovan international has been on the Bianconeri’s radar for more than a year, with the club monitoring his performances throughout last season before a long-term injury impacted his campaign.

 

The winger is among the players who could depart Lille in the current transfer window, and a move to Turin has been considered seriously. ............

 

Juventus must sell a player before progressing with negotiations for Zhegrova. Nicolas Gonzalez is identified as the key figure whose departure would enable the Bianconeri to make a formal approach for the Kosovan winger. Atletico Madrid is reportedly interested in signing Gonzalez, with discussions ongoing over the last few weeks. Juventus anticipate that offloading Gonzalez could provide the financial means and squad flexibility necessary to secure Zhegrova’s services. ............

 

Zhegrova is widely regarded as one of the finest wingers in France, and Juventus believe that his arrival could provide an upgrade on Gonzalez at the Allianz Stadium. The 27-year-old attacker offers pace, creativity, and versatility on the flanks, qualities that would enhance Juventus’ attacking options. If the transfer can be completed, he would be expected to compete for a starting position and strengthen the squad as the club aims to challenge on multiple fronts this season. ............

Juventus must meet two conditions to sign Zhegrova

 

 

Edon Zhegrova has already reached an agreement with Juventus, but the Bianconeri must lower Lille’s asking price and sell Nico Gonzalez.

 

Juventus have targeted Lille star Zhegrova to strengthen their attack, but Italian sources claim the Serie A giants must meet two conditions to finalise the deal. ............

 

First of all, the Old Lady must sell Nico Gonzalez, who has attracted interest from Atletico Madrid.

 

Juventus value the Argentine winger at €25/30m, but Atletico Madrid’s latest bid was worth €15m. The ex-Fiorentina star has already agreed to personal terms with the La Liga giants, but talks between the two clubs are ongoing. ............

 

Lille’s asking price is around €20/25m, but Juventus are working to bring it down, especially because the winger’s contract expires in June 2026 and he has already informed his club that he won’t extend it beyond this season. ............

Juventus optimistic about getting discount on Zhegrova

 

 

Juventus are keen to sign Lille winger Edon Zhegrova, but they’re hoping to receive more favourable terms.

 

The Bianconeri have already signed several players from the Ligue 1 side in recent years. They acquired the services of Timothy Weah in the summer of 2023, before snapping up Tiago Djalo six months later. The most recent case is Jonathan David who signed for the Serie A giants as a free agent after seeing out his contract with the French club. ............

 

The 26-year-old is a tricky left-footed winger who mainly plays on the right side before cutting to the middle. He is renowned for his fabulous technique and eye for goal.

 

Nevertheless, Lille are determined to cash in on the player this summer, as his contract will expire next June. The club doesn’t want to lose another key star for free. ............

 

At the moment, Lille are seeking an asking price in the region of €20-25 million. However, the Serie A giants feel this would be an excessive figure for a player whose contract will expire in less than a year.

 

Hence, Damien Comolli and Francois Modesto are optimistic about receiving a discount. While they would be happy to close the deal at €15 million, the two parties could reach a compromise somewhere down the middle. ............

LOSC warning Zhegrova is not closer to Juventus move

 

 

Lille President Olivier Letang confirmed talks with Juventus for Edon Zhegrova, but insisted ‘the door was a little more open then than it is today.’ ............

 

In a press conference today, LOSC President Letang laid out the situation from his point of view.

 

“He trained with us, he’s here and at the disposal of the coach,” said Letang.

 

“This is because there’s a good chance he will be with us this season. I know (Juventus director) Damien Comolli very well, we’ve spoken several times since he took over at Juventus.

 

“It’s true we had some discussions a few weeks ago. The door was perhaps a little more open then than it is today. My position is that Edon is staying with us this season.

 

“Besides, at this moment, we have not received an offer. The Italian media tend to get carried away. There is no agreement at all and no discussion of Edon departing for Italy.” ............

 

The Italian media has reported that Zhegrova agreed personal terms with Juventus and would give them the preference for the next step in his career. ............

Edon Zhegrova makes Juventus fans dream over his recent social media action

 

 

Edon Zhegrova is reportedly waiting for a move to Juventus after being excluded from Lille’s project in Ligue 1, and his situation is capturing the imagination of Juventus supporters.

 

The Kosovo winger has been consistently linked with a transfer to the Bianconeri during the current window. Observers suggest that Juventus regard him as an ideal addition who could enhance the overall strength and balance of their squad. ............

 

With less than a year remaining on his current contract at Lille, the French club has opted to take a decisive stance. By removing him from their immediate sporting project, they have effectively encouraged him to seek a new destination. This approach signals both a recognition of his value on the transfer market and a pragmatic attempt to avoid losing him without compensation. ............

 

Zhegrova recently fuelled speculation about his intentions through activity on social media. The report claims he liked a post shared by Kenan Yildiz following Juventus’ victory against Parma. This seemingly small gesture did not go unnoticed, as eagle-eyed Juventus supporters interpreted it as a significant clue pointing to his desire to join the club. Such interactions, though indirect, often play a role in shaping transfer narratives, particularly in the modern era, where fans and media alike scrutinise online behaviour for signs of future decisions. ............

Zhegrova acquires Albanian citizenship, which could help facilitate Juventus move

 

 

Lille winger Edon Zhegrova has confirmed that he has acquired an Albanian passport, which means that he would not take up a valuable non-EU slot in the Juventus squad should his move to the Bianconeri materialise before the close of the summer transfer window. ............

 

Zhegrova has since been dropping hints over a potential move to Juventus, including his leaving a like on the recent posts from Kenan Yildiz’s Instagram account. ............

 

The Lega Serie A changed the rules surrounding the registration of non-EU players at the beginning of the 2024-25 season. Significantly, part of the rule changes brought the recognition of Albanians as EU players. ............

Lille wants to keep Juventus target despite expiring contract

 

 

Lille are determined to retain Edon Zhegrova for the remainder of the season, even though doing so carries the risk of losing him on a free transfer when his contract expires next year.

 

The winger has attracted significant interest, with Juventus among the clubs eager to secure his services during the current transfer window. ............

 

Juventus consider Zhegrova an ideal candidate to improve their attacking options and remains hopeful that negotiations could develop in the coming days. Given that his contract is due to expire at the end of the season, many would expect Lille to accept an offer now rather than risk losing him without compensation.

 

However, the French club appears unwilling to part ways with one of their most important players at such a crucial stage of the campaign. Despite the financial implications, Lille are prioritising their on-field competitiveness and seem prepared to accept the possibility of losing him for nothing.

 

This stance is not unprecedented. Lille previously saw Jonathan David depart for Juventus as a free agent, yet they seem ready to adopt a similar approach with Zhegrova, underlining the value they place on his contributions to the team in the immediate term. ............

 

Speaking on the situation, club president Olivier Létang made Lille’s perspective clear. He said:

 

“We know there’s that risk, but we want to keep Zhegrova.”

 

His statement emphasises Lille’s commitment to retaining the winger’s influence, even if it ultimately comes at a cost. ............

Juventus deal for attacker is set to fall through because of Nicolas Gonzalez

 

 

Juventus are set to miss out on Edon Zhegrova as the winger closes in on a transfer to Olympique Marseille in the coming days. This development comes as a blow to the Bianconeri, who have been monitoring the Kosovan attacker closely for several months and had previously pursued him during last summer’s window. ............

 

Despite mutual interest, negotiations have not progressed as Juventus continue to face difficulties finalising player sales. The club cannot move forward with a deal for Zhegrova at this stage, in part due to their inability to offload Nicolas Gonzalez. Without generating funds from outgoing transfers, Juventus find itself restricted in pursuing new targets.

 

This delay has allowed Marseille to take the lead in securing Zhegrova’s signature. The Ligue 1 side is moving quickly to finalise terms, capitalising on Juventus’ hesitation in the market. Unless there is a significant change in circumstances, Zhegrova’s future now looks set to lie in France rather than Italy. ............

 

Zhegrova is regarded as a technically gifted player capable of making a notable impact in attack, but Juventus must address its squad balance before making new additions. The situation highlights a broader issue for the Bianconeri, who remain active in the transfer market yet constrained by financial and squad limitations. ............

“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.” ............

Zhegrova set for Juventus switch: the details

 

 

With not long left to go of the summer transfer window, Juventus have reportedly completed a deal to sign Kosovar winger Edon Zhegrova from Ligue 1 side Lille.

 

According to transfer expert Alfredo Pedullà, the deal has been done for a package in excess of €20 million, with €18-20 million plus bonuses, after the player pushed for a move to the Bianconeri. ............

 

Kosovar winger Zhegrova has had an impressive few seasons in France with Lille, playing over 100 times for the Ligue 1 side in all competitions since joining from Swiss side FC Basel in 2022. ............

 

With a medical looming tomorrow, the Old Lady will be keen to get the deal over the line before the window slams shut.

Official: Juventus sign Edon Zhegrova

 

 

Juventus have completed the signing of Kosovar winger Edon Zhegrova from Lille, for a fee of around €15 million plus a further €3 million in bonuses. ............

 

26-year-old winger Zhegrova joins the Old Lady after the club deposited his contract with the league, making the Kosovar international’s move to Turin official.

 

On their official website, the Bianconeri welcomed the winger: “Zhegrova brings flair, speed and a technical repertoire that will enhance Juventus’ attacking potential. Capable of playing on both flanks, he will be a new weapon in coach Igor Tudor’s arsenal.” ............

 

According to various outlets, one of the major factors in getting a deal over the line was the player’s desire to join Juventus, as the Kosovar becomes the latest of a number of strong signings the club have gifted head coach Igor Tudor with this season. ............

 

Alongside today’s deadline day pursuit of Lois Openda, Juventus have signed Jonathan David and Joao Mario, alongside completing permanent deals for Francisco Conceiçao and Michele Di Gregorio.

Zhegrova: ‘Juventus can win many titles with our quality’

 

 

Edon Zhegrova says it is ‘a dream’ for him to wear the Juventus jersey after the transfer from LOSC, believing they ‘can win titles with the quality that we have.’ ............

 

A formal statement confirms Juventus paid €14.3m to LOSC, payable over four instalments, plus €1.2m in add-ons. There are also a further maximum of €3m in performance-related bonuses. ............

 

“It’s like a dream for me, an amazing moment for me and my family. I feel honoured to wear this shirt, and I am going to wear it with a lot of pride. I’m going to give my best to this team,” Zhegrova told the official Juventus website.

 

“My preferred position is right winger. My style of play is dribbling, scoring goals, giving assists, helping my team with my quality.” ............

 

Has the 26-year-old set himself any particular targets for this season?

 

“Scoring a lot, winning many titles, and I think with this team, we can win titles with the quality that we have.”

 

Zhegrova will probably be able to make his debut for Juventus in the Derby d’Italia against Inter, which is coming up straight after the break for international duty.

 

“To the Bianconeri fans, I cannot wait to meet you all at the stadium. Let the show begin!”

Edon Zhegrova tipped to shape Juventus season

 

 

Edon Zhegrova is expected to make an immediate impact at Juventus following his deadline-day transfer to the Allianz Stadium.

The Bianconeri strengthened their squad significantly with the additions of Zhegrova and Lois Openda, joining an already impressive roster that includes some of Italy’s finest players. The Kosovo international had been monitored by the club for several months, as it became clear that his time at Lille was drawing to a close. ............

 

Samir Ujkani, Kosovo’s sporting director, has also voiced his optimism about the player’s move. He said, “He’s definitely a top-tier player, one of those players who can change the team and shape the season. Now that he’s healthy, I’m sure he’ll impress in Italy: he’s a hard worker, he’s grown year after year, and now he’s ready for a different experience. Because Juventus, with all due respect to the clubs Edon has played for so far, is something else entirely.” ............

 

Zhegrova is regarded as a versatile and talented attacker, capable of influencing games in multiple ways. His arrival bolsters an already strong squad and provides Tudor with additional options in the final third. The expectation is that his experience and ability will complement the existing group, enhancing Juventus’ prospects in both domestic and European competitions. ............

Speaking to the club’s official Instagram account, the Bianconeri’s new man answered some quick fire questions that revealed a little bit more about the winger. ............

The Kosovo international was also asked to describe himself with one word, to which he replied “unstoppable.” ............

 

Zhegrova said his sporting idol is Lionel Messi and concluded by saying that his dream with Juventus would be “to score a last minute goal to win the title or something like that.”

Zhegrova reveals an exciting dream he hopes to achieve at Juventus

 

 

Edon Zhegrova has officially completed his move to Juventus, providing the Bianconeri with additional attacking depth for the new season.

 

The men in black and white endured a busy summer transfer window, with Zhegrova arriving as a direct replacement for Nicolas Gonzalez, who completed a move to Atlético Madrid. The Spanish side had been pursuing Gonzalez for several weeks, and during that period, Juventus also opened discussions with Lille regarding Zhegrova. ............

 

Zhegrova arrives in Turin with a reputation for being one of Ligue 1’s most exciting wide players during his time at Lille. Known for his flair, direct dribbling, and ability to unlock defences, he consistently caused problems for opponents and was widely regarded as one of the French club’s most dangerous assets.

 

Now in black and white, the winger is determined to make an impression and contribute to Juventus’ campaign under Igor Tudor. His versatility and creativity are expected to add a new dimension to the squad’s attacking play, ensuring the Bianconeri remain competitive across all fronts. ............

 

Since finalising his transfer, Zhegrova has spoken openly about his excitement at joining such a historic club. He revealed a special dream he hopes to fulfil during his time at the Allianz Stadium: “to score a last-minute goal to win the title or something like that.” ............

Will Juventus be able to count on Zhegrova against Inter Milan?

 

 

Igor Tudor and his staff will have an important decision to make regarding the availability of new Juventus signing Edon Zhegrova ahead of the Inter clash. ............

 

Zhegrova is currently training at Continassa alongside his new teammates, at least those who weren’t called up for international duty.

 

As for the Kosovar, his exclusion from the national team was hardly a surprise, as his last competitive match dates back to mid-December. ............

 

Tudor and the technical staff will be keeping a close eye on Zhegrova’s condition over the next week or so, before deciding whether they can rely on his services, albeit partially in the Derby d’Italia against Inter on September 13, or delay his return to the pitch.

 

The way the player responds to the training regime will play a decisive factor in the coach’s decision. ............
