Juventus eye Niclas Füllkrug as potential striker addition

Start

Juventus are actively seeking to bolster its attacking options during the current transfer window, with several names emerging as potential targets. Among these is Niclas Füllkrug, the German International currently at West Ham United, who has caught the attention of the Bianconeri.

Gianluca Di Marzio reports how Füllkrug, who will turn 32 in February, joined West Ham in the summer following a successful season with Borussia Dortmund, where he played a pivotal role in their run to the UEFA Champions League final. However, his time in England has been challenging. This season, he has made only nine appearances in the Premier League, scoring two goals and providing one assist. His limited playing time has raised questions about his future at the club.

Juventus are considering Füllkrug as a viable option, alongside other targets like Joshua Zirkzee from Manchester United and Randal Kolo Muani from Paris Saint-Germain. The club’s interest in Füllkrug comes at a time when they are looking to enhance their attacking depth, primarily to support Dusan Vlahovic.

The Italian side are reportedly open to acquiring players on loan or those nearing the end of their contracts due to financial constraints after significant summer spending. With West Ham reportedly exploring new striker options, including making bids for other forwards, Füllkrug’s position could become precarious, potentially paving the way for a move to Juventus.
