Juventus are yet to make their first move of the January transfer window, as the club continues to assess potential reinforcements to bolster Massimiliano Allegri’s squad.
The main focus remains on finding a backup for Kenan Yildiz, whose growing importance in the team has prompted the Bianconeri to look for an attacking alternative capable of easing the workload on the young forward. At the same time, Juventus are exploring the market for a new winger who can operate effectively on both flanks.
Chiesa Situation at a Standstill
Negotiations surrounding Federico Chiesa’s future appear to be locked in a stalemate. Liverpool are reportedly demanding around €15 million for the forward in a permanent deal — a fee that, when combined with the player’s wages, presents a significant financial commitment. For now, there have been no major developments between the parties, with the situation remaining on standby.
Maldini Talks Resume
There have been renewed contacts regarding Daniel Maldini. Juventus have discussed the potential terms, costs, and project surrounding the 24-year-old, who spent the first half of the season impressing at Monza. According to the latest reports, Maldini’s name is gaining traction again, and his chances of joining the Bianconeri appear to be on the rise.
The Search for a Number 9
Juventus are also on the lookout for a traditional number nine. In recent hours, Youssef En-Nesyri has been offered to the club, though the Sevilla striker is also being proposed to Napoli, now under the management of Antonio Conte. For Juventus, the Moroccan remains an option to monitor rather than an immediate target, but possible developments could emerge in the coming days.
Another name under consideration is Jean-Philippe Mateta of Crystal Palace. However, no advanced negotiations are currently underway, with Juventus having only made preliminary enquiries to gather more information.
