The new Juventus era under Luciano Spalletti is starting to take clear shape, balancing confirmations, potential sacrifices and major transfer market moves.
The absolute cornerstone of the Bianconeri project is Kenan Yildiz, with the Turkish talent regarded as the face of the club’s future.

Yildiz will remain in Turin even in the event of missing qualification for the next Champions League. Only an extraordinary offer exceeding €100 million could change Juventus’ stance. After renewing his contract in February, the club has made the decision to build its new technical cycle around him.
Alongside Yildiz, Manuel Locatelli and Weston McKennie are also considered untouchable, both already secured by the club.
Pierre Kalulu is expected to be permanently signed, while Boga will also be acquired on a permanent deal from Nice to strengthen Spalletti’s squad.
Key uncertainties and potential departures
The most delicate situation concerns Gleison Bremer. The Brazilian defender remains central to Juventus’ project, but his €54 million release clause could make him one of the hottest names of the summer transfer window.
While the club’s intention is to keep him, no player is considered completely unsellable in front of major offers. Doubts also remain over Mattia Perin, Lloyd Kelly, and Khéphren Thuram, whose strong development has attracted interest from several European clubs.
Spalletti hopes to avoid losing key players, but significant proposals could force the club into serious evaluations, including the situation of Francisco Conceição.
According to Corriere dello Sport, possible departures could also include Andrea Cambiaso and Federico Gatti, seen as potential capital gains opportunities.
Di Gregorio remains under observation despite improving performances, while Teun Koopmeiners also carries a high valuation. Meanwhile, the high salaries of Openda and David make any exit difficult.

Separate considerations involve Cabal, who has not fully convinced the management, and Adzic, who could leave in search of more playing time.
Finally, the returns of Douglas Luiz and Daniele Rugani will be assessed in the coming weeks as Juventus continue to define their new Spalletti-led structure.
