Juventus have turned their attention to Hungary, with Ferencváros midfielder Alex Tóth emerging as a potential target, according to reports from Tuttosport (as quoted by Calciomercato). The Bianconeri are said to be monitoring the 20-year-old closely, looking to inject more quality into their midfield — both for the present and for the years ahead.
The Italian club face stiff competition, however. Bayer Leverkusen and RB Leipzig are reportedly among the frontrunners to sign the player, while Bayern Munich and Borussia Dortmund are also keeping a watchful eye on his progress.
Rising Star in Budapest
Born in 2005, the same generation as Juventus’ own Kenan Yildiz, Tóth has already established himself at senior level. Having been part of the Ferencváros first team for two years, he has made 19 appearances, contributing two goals and five assists. His versatility in midfield makes him an attractive option — he can operate in any central role, from a deep-lying playmaker to an attacking midfielder supporting the forwards.
Tóth’s current market value is estimated to be around €15 million, a figure that reflects both his potential and his rapidly growing reputation in European football.
A Helping Hand from Marco Rossi
One figure who could influence Juventus’ pursuit is Hungary’s national coach, Marco Rossi — a Turin native. Rossi handed Tóth his senior international debut in March during a match against Turkey, featuring Yildiz on the opposing side. Since then, Tóth has become a regular fixture in the Hungarian squad, even starting in the dramatic defeat to Ireland that ultimately ended their World Cup play-off hopes.
His growing international experience, combined with his technical talent and composure, make Alex Tóth one of the most intriguing young midfielders in Eastern Europe — and a name Juventus will surely continue to keep on their radar.
