Juventus are gearing up for a major reshuffle on the right flank, a crucial area needing reinforcement with Alberto Costa set for a move to Sporting and Timothy Weah reportedly heading to Marseille. While Marc Pubill remains a priority for strengthening the position, Tuttosport report that the club has also been approached in recent hours by the agents of Lucas Vazquez, a seasoned professional who has just closed a chapter at Real Madrid after dedicating his entire career to the club.
Lucas Vazquez on Juventus’s Radar
The idea of signing Lucas Vazquez is not a new one for Juventus, as his name has circulated frequently in previous transfer windows. Now, with his departure from Real Madrid, club executive Damien Comolli is seriously evaluating the possibility of bringing in a player who has won everything in Spain and could offer invaluable experience both on the pitch and in the locker room as a mentor for younger teammates. Vazquez is an attractive proposition due to the low cost of acquisition, as he would arrive as a free agent with only his salary to consider.
On the contractual front, Vazquez is seeking a two-year deal but is reportedly open to an initial one-year agreement with an option for renewal based on certain conditions being met. During his time in Madrid, Vazquez earned 4.5 million euros per season, and this wage is a point of consideration for Juventus, as their current offer would not match his previous salary.
Juventus’s Options for the Right Flank
Lucas Vazquez now joins a growing shortlist of candidates Juventus are evaluating for the right-sided role. The club has already marked Marc Pubill as a top target, and recent developments have seen Juventus firmly enter the race against clubs like Wolverhampton and Milan for the promising Almeria full-back, who is valued at around 15 million euros.
Other names on the list include:
-
Josha Vagnoman: The Stuttgart right-back is out of contract in June 2026 and has attracted Juventus’s interest, with reports suggesting a fee around 10 million euros could secure the deal.
-
Daniel Munoz: After an impressive season with Crystal Palace, Munoz’s athleticism and impact have made him a notable proposition.
-
Dodo: The Fiorentina defender stands out for his attacking qualities, though the Italian club has placed a particularly high price tag on him, around 25 million euros.
