Juve prepare January move for Sevilla right-back

Juventus continue to be one of the most active clubs in the transfer market, carefully working on multiple fronts to strengthen the squad ahead of the decisive phase of the season.

According to Gianluca Di Marzio, the latest idea on the Bianconeri’s list is Juanlu Sanchez, a young defender currently playing for Sevilla.

While much of the attention in recent days has been focused on the attacking department — especially after Juventus reached a basic agreement for Youssef En-Nesyri — the club is also looking to reinforce its defensive line and wide areas.

Juanlu has emerged as a potential solution, particularly as a backup option to Pierre Kalulu, offering depth and flexibility across the defensive flank.

The main point to clarify at this stage concerns the formula of the deal. Juventus are evaluating whether Sevilla would be open to a loan move with an option to buy, a structure that would allow the Italian club to assess the player’s adaptation before committing to a permanent transfer.

Sevilla’s Position and the Juanlu Sanchez profile

Juanlu Sanchez, born in 2003, is not a new name for Italian football. During the summer transfer window, the Spanish defender was already closely monitored by Napoli, then coached by Antonio Conte, confirming his growing reputation outside La Liga.

This season, Juanlu has accumulated valuable experience with Sevilla, making 16 appearances in La Liga and three matches in the Copa del Rey, contributing one assist along the way. His consistent involvement highlights the trust placed in him by the Spanish club, despite his young age.

For Juventus, the operation would represent a strategic move aimed at investing in a promising profile while maintaining financial flexibility. Talks are still at an exploratory stage, and much will depend on Sevilla’s willingness to negotiate under Juventus’ preferred conditions.

As reported by Gianluca Di Marzio, the situation remains one to watch closely in the coming weeks, as Juventus continue shaping their squad with both the present and future in mind.
