Juventus are gearing up for a major overhaul in its attacking lineup ahead of the next season. With Dusan Vlahovic yet to renew his contract expiring in 2026, Randal Kolo Muani on a dry loan from Paris Saint-Germain, and Arek Milik likely to depart, the club faces an urgent need to revamp its forward options.
A Target Emerges
Tuttosport report that one of the names firmly on Juventus’ radar is Rasmus Højlund, the Danish striker currently at Manchester United and formerly of Atalanta. The 22-year-old has struggled to find consistency and confidence at United, prompting interest from several clubs, including two in Serie A. Among them, Napoli have expressed interest but does not consider Højlund a top priority. However, Juventus appears far more committed to pursuing the player.
Early Steps
Reports indicate that Juventus has already initiated preliminary contacts to explore the feasibility of a deal for Højlund. While no formal negotiations have begun, the club is seriously evaluating him as a key target for the summer transfer window. Højlund joined Manchester United in 2023 for €70 million plus bonuses after a successful stint at Atalanta, where he scored 10 goals in 34 appearances. Since moving to England, he has recorded 24 goals in 82 matches across all competitions—a respectable tally but one that has yet to meet expectations fully.
