Juventus are searching for a new striker as their attacking department faces big changes.

Both Dusan Vlahovic and Arek Milik are on their way out. Though for different reasons, neither is part of the club’s future plans anymore.

Jonathan David is already set to join and will start his Juventus career on Thursday. However, David alone will not be enough for Igor Tudor to face a demanding season ahead.

Last year’s mistakes taught the club a harsh lesson. A thin attack cost Juventus dearly until Randal Kolo Muani arrived mid-season.

Kolo Muani is the priority, but Juventus has also other options as for La Stampa

Kolo Muani remains Tudor’s top choice for the striker role. The two worked well together recently and the coach wants the Frenchman back in Turin.

Negotiations with PSG are ongoing but complicated. The French champions are not open to a loan with an option to buy. They want a permanent sale and prefer to solve this situation quickly.

A possible solution could be a paid loan with an obligation to buy later. However, there is still work to be done to bridge the gap between the clubs.

With the Kolo Muani deal uncertain, Damien Comolli is already considering alternatives. Juventus are in constant talks with Manchester United.

The ongoing negotiations for Jadon Sancho continue, but the Red Devils are also selling strikers. Among them is Rasmus Hojlund, a player both Comolli and Tudor admire.

Juventus are also keeping an eye on Darwin Nunez. Liverpool have put the Uruguayan on the market after securing Hugo Ekitike.

Napoli and Milan showed interest in recent weeks. Liverpool want around €60 million.

However, a loan with a future obligation could be possible thanks to Nunez’s long contract.

Lastly, Juventus remain alert to the future of Benjamin Sesko. The Leipzig striker is attracting interest from top clubs across Europe.

They continue monitoring his situation closely as they consider strengthening their attack. Scouts have provided positive reports on his potential and development.
