Not just Weah, Juventus' treasure trove from transfers
Accumulating the necessary funds to be a full squad member at the Allianz Stadium on August 13th. Juventus is intensifying its squad-building efforts: having received €18 million for Weah from Marseille, including a loan and an obligation to buy, they are working on the transfers of Douglas Luiz and Miretti , while confidently awaiting a resolution to the Vlahovic and Nico Gonzalez cases. The goal is to provide Tudor with the reinforcements he would have needed at the Herzogenaurach training camp in time for the traditional friendly against the Next Gen in mid-August, which John Elkann will also attend.
Douglas Luiz to NottinghamStarting with Douglas Luiz, everything revolves around the actions of Kia Joorabchian, the Brazilian's powerful manager, who flew to England to find him a place. Nottingham Forest is close to signing the midfielder, but Juventus' demand and the Tricky Trees' offer are still far apart. The goal is to collect €40 million to avoid a capital loss, or at least remove the cost of a year's salary from the balance sheet: a loan with an option to buy could be the way forward.
Fabio Miretti
Negotiations continue with Napoli for Miretti : Manna has offered €15 million, still far from the €20 million requested. However, the deal will go through, despite Tudor requesting time before selling the 2003-born player. This would give Juventus the liquidity and salary cap to pursue Kolo Muani and allow Sporting to work alongside him for Hjulmand . The French striker is training with PSG's surplus players, who remain unchanged: a permanent transfer or a loan with a mandatory commitment, given the player's financial burden. Continassa has offered €10 million for the loan and €35 million for the right, which would be converted into a mandatory commitment under very simple conditions. By raising the fixed fee, or by committing to a mandatory commitment, Kolo Muani could be seen on August 13th in front of his "old" new fans.
Nico will leave if the right offer comes alongThe Vlahovic and Nico Gonzalez issues remain open. The Argentine isn't for sale, but he's not unsellable—a circumlocution to say that if the right offer came in, he'd pack his bags. His replacement is already ready, Sancho , whom Juve haven't made a move for. Milan aren't in a rush for Vlahovic, and after their initial offer of €15 million was rejected, they're waiting to raise their bid, also exploring Manchester United's Hojlund option, who just spent €90 million on Sesko.
Juventus' target in midfield is former Lecce player Hjulmand, but they're looking at €60 million, a figure that could be reached even with the sacrifice of Savona, who has been eyed by several Premier League teams. A more affordable alternative is Brighton's O'Riley , a naturalized Danish national, who is already being pursued by Atalanta.
Juanlu for NapoliNapoli, meanwhile, are one step closer to Juanlu : their €17 million offer to Sevilla in four installments should unlock the deal. Gutierrez is also on the way, and negotiations for the Girona full-back are in the final stages. A winger is lacking: Chiesa remains a likely option. Manchester City are offering Grealish , Everton are reportedly interested in him on loan, and sporting director Manna is keeping an eye on the matter. Discussions continue between Raspadori and Atletico Madrid: Jack is valued at €30 million. After Jashari, Milan are also closing in on Athekame from Young Boys for €8 million plus bonuses.
