Carnevali strongly on two Italian talents

Juventus have already identified several areas that could require reinforcements, with a new striker and a midfielder capable of improving the team’s creativity and playmaking among their priorities.

According to La Gazzetta dello Sport, two young Italian talents, Antonio Raimondo and Alessandro Romano, have emerged as potential targets as the Bianconeri begin planning for the future.

Raimondo and Romano on Juventus’ Radar

Antonio Raimondo is one of the young Italian strikers attracting significant attention from Juventus.

The 20-year-old is currently playing for Frosinone on loan from Bologna, and his characteristics are considered compatible with the type of forward the Turin club could seek in the coming years.

Juventus already have an exciting young prospect in their squad in the form of 18-year-old Ekhator, who is currently sidelined through injury. However, his presence has not stopped the club’s management from monitoring other promising attacking options.

Raimondo fits the profile Juventus are looking for: Italian, young, and still possessing considerable room for development.

The other name attracting attention is Alessandro Romano. The promising midfielder is gaining valuable experience at senior level with Cagliari, having joined the club from Roma on loan with an obligation to buy.

His performances and technical qualities have reportedly attracted the attention of Italy coach Roberto Mancini.

Romano’s personality, vision, and willingness to take responsibility despite his young age make him an interesting option for Juventus as they search for a midfielder around whom they can build for the future.

Juventus Planning a New Italian Core

According to La Gazzetta dello Sport, Raimondo and Romano could represent just the beginning of a broader strategy. Juventus’ 2027 transfer agenda is expected to include several Italian prospects, with the scouting reorganisation announced by the new management potentially playing a key role.

The objective is to identify talented players before they achieve a major breakthrough, avoiding the inflated valuations and increased competition that often follow.

This approach also includes Lorenzo Palmisani, another young Italian player reportedly being monitored by Juventus as a potential goalkeeper for the future.

Although modern football makes it difficult to recreate Juventus teams built predominantly around the Italian national team, increasing the number of Italian players in the squad remains a realistic ambition.

The lineups in the last two matches, featuring Vicario as the only Italian player, highlight a situation rarely seen in recent Juventus history.

The 2027 transfer window could therefore represent the first opportunity for the new management to plan well in advance and leave a lasting mark on the squad.

Raimondo and Romano are two names to watch—but Juventus’ wider project could be about rebuilding an Italian core, one promising talent at a time.
