In a bid to bolster their squad ahead of the summer transfer window, Juventus have set their sights on Lazio winger Mattia Zaccagni, initiating contact as they contemplate a potential move.
Amid speculation linking the Italian to the Bianconeri in recent months, journalist Giovanni Albanese has shed light on Juventus’ keen interest in securing the services of the versatile winger. Zaccagni’s existing contract is poised to expire in the summer of 2025, rendering him an enticing prospect for Juventus as they seek to reinforce their ranks.
The allure of Zaccagni isn’t lost on Juventus’ sporting director, Cristiano Guintoli, who has harbored admiration for the player since his tenure at Napoli. Contacts with the player’s representatives have already been established, with the Juventus hierarchy unequivocally expressing their desire to lure Zaccagni to Turin come summertime. While negotiations with Lazio have encountered initial hurdles, there remains optimism that opportunities for dialogue could materialize in the future.
Juventus’ upcoming fixtures against Lazio offer the perfect platform for the Bianconeri to closely monitor Zaccagni’s performances, providing invaluable insights as they evaluate the winger’s suitability for the club.
With discussions concerning the futures of Moise Kean and Federico Chiesa scheduled for the conclusion of the season, Juventus could potentially part ways with one or both players in the summer. Zaccagni emerges as a prime candidate to fill the void left by their potential departures, with the Bianconeri hierarchy viewing him as a viable replacement in their squad overhaul.
