Cristiano Giuntoli, Juventus’ sporting director, has provided insights into the club’s transfer strategy just moments before the Turin derby kickoff. Speaking to DAZN, Giuntoli addressed the challenges of the January transfer window and hinted at potential moves for high-profile targets.
“We must respect various parameters. Important players are difficult to move in January, so we need to have a bit of patience,” Giuntoli explained, highlighting the complexities of mid-season transfers.
Despite the challenges, Giuntoli remained optimistic about potential signings, particularly when asked about Ronald Araújo and Randal Kolo Muani. “Araújo and Kolo Muani? They are good players, but we hope there will be positive news this week,” he stated, suggesting that negotiations might be progressing for the Barcelona defender and the PSG striker.
Addressing the crucial month ahead for Juventus, Giuntoli emphasized the constant pressure at the club: “A defining month? At Juve, you’re always under examination. We’re aware that we’ve started almost from scratch. We believe that soon we’ll be able to return to being protagonists.”
