Juventus could face serious competition in the race to sign one of Ligue 1’s most intriguing attacking talents, with Atlético Madrid and Aston Villa also monitoring his situation.
According to transfer journalist Ekrem Konur, the Spanish giants have joined Juventus and Aston Villa in following Pavel Šulc, the 25-year-old Czech international who currently plays for Olympique Lyonnais.

The attacking midfielder has attracted growing attention thanks to his versatility and ability to operate in several positions across the attacking line.
His technical quality and adaptability make him an appealing option for clubs looking to strengthen their offensive departments.
Juventus are among the clubs keeping an eye on his progress, but Atlético Madrid’s interest could make the situation more complicated for the Bianconeri, particularly if the competition for his signature intensifies in the coming months.

Šulc has made a promising start to the current campaign, recording one goal and three assists in eight appearances. His performances have helped increase his visibility in the transfer market, with several clubs reportedly assessing the possibility of securing his services.
However, signing the Lyon midfielder would not necessarily be a straightforward operation. His reported valuation stands at approximately €50 million, a substantial figure that could force interested clubs to carefully consider their next move.
For Juventus, the Czech international represents a potentially attractive option to add creativity, versatility and attacking depth to the squad.

Nevertheless, the Bianconeri would need to weigh up the financial implications before making a concrete move.
Atlético Madrid, meanwhile, continue to evaluate potential reinforcements for their future plans. Although questions remain over Julián Álvarez’s long-term future, the Spanish club are also exploring other attacking options rather than focusing exclusively on one player.
With Juventus, Atlético Madrid and Aston Villa all reportedly monitoring Šulc, his future could become an interesting story to follow as the transfer market approaches its next major window.
For now, there is no confirmation of an official offer from any of the interested clubs, but the reported €50m valuation suggests that Lyon could demand a significant fee before considering his departure.
