Juventus continue to be active in the transfer market as they seek to bolster their defensive lineup for manager Thiago Motta. The club’s sporting director, Cristiano Giuntoli, is on the hunt for ideal defensive profiles following setbacks in their pursuit of other targets.
Gianluca Di Marzio reports how, with injuries to key defenders Bremer and Cabal, and after facing rejection from Araujo and encountering difficulties in negotiations for Tomori, Juventus are now setting its sights on new prospects. The club is scheduled to have fresh discussions with both Chelsea and Newcastle United to explore the potential acquisitions of Portuguese defender Renato Veiga, born in 2003, and English defender Lloyd Kelly, born in 1998, respectively.
These talks aim to ascertain the conditions under which these players might be allowed to leave their current clubs. Juventus views both Veiga and Kelly as promising options to strengthen their backline.
In addition to defensive reinforcements, Juventus is also making moves in the attacking department. Tuesday, January 21, could prove to be a decisive day in finalizing the deal for Kolo Muani. This transfer appears to be progressing smoothly, with the French striker already participating in training sessions with the team, indicating the advanced stage of negotiations.
