If it were up to Guido Rodriguez, he would already be at Continassa. The Argentine midfielder has made it clear that the Juventus option is the most appealing and prestigious among those on the table. Tuttosport report that, at 31, the World Cup winner with Argentina sees Turin as the ideal stage to relaunch his career after a difficult spell at West Ham, who signed him in the summer of 2024 following four strong seasons as the metronome of Real Betis.
His adaptation to the Premier League has been complicated by injuries and settling-in issues, and the step up has not gone as planned. As a result, his entourage are actively looking around and have presented the Juventus opportunity with conviction. The potential cost of a deal is not expected to exceed 10 million euros, a figure that makes the operation attractive from an economic perspective. The player’s approval is total, so if Juventus were to finally be convinced of his fit, the transfer could move quickly, with only the details between the clubs left to resolve. However, the winter window for the Bianconeri is shaping up to be a complex puzzle, heavily influenced by possible departures.
Perin Likely to Stay, Adzic Sought After
One of the potential outgoing moves that appears to have stalled is Mattia Perin’s. Genoa, encouraged by the goalkeeper’s willingness to return, tried to secure a favourable deal, but Juventus have no intention of letting him go without a replacement of similar level already lined up. A profile such as Lazio’s Mandas would have been considered, but the valuation of around 15 million euros is deemed too high for a back-up role.
Another name attracting strong interest is that of Montenegro talent Adzic. The plan is to find him regular playing time, preferably in Serie A, although there is no shortage of enquiries from abroad. The winger wants to accumulate minutes and experience as soon as possible, and his temporary exit could be the key to unlocking space in the squad for a new midfielder. In a market defined by narrow margins and interlocking moves, his loan could be the decisive piece that allows Juventus to complete a signing in the middle of the pitch.
Milik Evaluates Future, Vlahovic to Remain
Up front, Arek Milik has reappeared more regularly in the squad list after a year and a half out, but he has yet to recover his place on the pitch. The Polish striker is eager to feel like a fully involved player again and is open to a new experience if the right opportunity comes along. Juventus, for their part, are ready to consider solutions, including a loan, that would give him continuity while also easing the wage bill and creating room for a new signing.
Dusan Vlahovic, by contrast, is not expected to leave in January. An agreement with the club was clear from the outset, even before the injury that will keep him out for at least another couple of months. Despite his absence, the possibility of adding another forward remains on the table. The exact profile, however, will be determined by the opportunities that arise during the window: no option is ruled out, as long as it represents good value and fits into the broader strategy. In this sense, Juventus’ winter market will be guided by flexibility and timing, with Rodriguez as a major target and a series of outgoing moves potentially dictating how far the club can go.
