Juventus eye Fiorentina wing-back

Juventus have long tapped into Fiorentina’s talent pool, strengthening their squad through multiple strategic transfers over the years.

This recurring partnership has seen players like Moise Kean and Nicolo Fagioli make the switch to Florence. Such moves highlight Juventus’ strategy of leveraging domestic rivals to bolster key positions.

Now, under the leadership of manager Igor Tudor, the Turin-based giants appear poised to revisit this transfer channel.

Tudor’s tactical vision: Dodo the name

Tudor’s tactical blueprint revolves heavily around wingbacks, a role that requires both stamina and technical precision. His current squad lacks players naturally suited to this demanding position, hampering his system’s full potential.

As a result, Juventus are evaluating fresh targets—one of the most prominent being Fiorentina’s Brazilian wingback, Dodo.

Tudor is reportedly an admirer of Dodo’s attacking flair, high work rate, and sharp tactical discipline. The Brazilian has consistently delivered solid performances in Serie A, enhancing his reputation on both ends of the pitch.

According to Il Bianconero, Dodo’s attributes align perfectly with what Tudor needs in his wide defensive roles. However, the biggest development lies off the field—contract negotiations between Dodo and Fiorentina have hit a snag.

The Viola’s inability to secure a renewal puts them at risk of losing him for less than his market value. This contract impasse could open the door for Juventus to make an aggressive move this summer.

Snapping up Dodo would provide Juventus not just quality, but also tactical balance and much-needed depth on the flanks.

It also signals Juventus’ intent to reshape their identity under Tudor by aligning transfers with his tactical framework.

As the summer window unfolds, all eyes will be on Florence to see if this well-trodden path between clubs remains active. A potential move for Dodo could once again underline the strategic synergy that exists between these two Serie A sides.
