Tarik Muharemovic’s name is once again being linked with Juventus — this time not only as a long-term prospect but as a potential option for the upcoming winter transfer window. The 22-year-old Bosnian centre-back, currently at Sassuolo, continues to impress after helping the Neroverdi secure promotion from Serie B to Serie A last season.
Sassuolo Open to Offers
IlBianconero report how Muharemovic’s consistent performances have not gone unnoticed, attracting interest from several top Serie A clubs. Sassuolo CEO Giovanni Carnevali recently acknowledged this growing attention, stating that “Muharemovic is showing great things and is a player with huge potential. Offers will come — it’s part of our policy.”
Known for developing and selling young talent, Sassuolo are not expected to close the door on a possible sale, especially if a significant proposal arrives.
Why Juventus Are Interested
For Juventus, Muharemovic could become an appealing target as early as January. Thanks to a favourable sell-on clause agreed when the defender moved to Sassuolo, the Bianconeri would benefit from a 50% discount on any future transfer fee — a significant advantage if they decide to bring him back to Turin.
The injury to Daniele Rugani, expected to sideline him for at least a month, has also reshaped Juventus’s short-term defensive plans. Adding another central defender familiar with Serie A could prove valuable as the team navigate a busy domestic and European schedule.
Transfer Value and Current Situation
At present, there are no active negotiations between the clubs. Sassuolo would prefer to postpone any discussions until the summer, reluctant to lose one of Fabio Grosso’s mainstays mid-season. Muharemovic’s current market value is estimated at around €20 million — a sharp rise from the €5 million Sassuolo initially invested.

For now, Juventus remain on standby, monitoring developments closely. However, given the club’s defensive needs and the economic advantages linked to the player’s clause, Tarik Muharemovic’s name could soon feature prominently in January’s transfer discussions.
