Juventus opened talks to sign Skriniar

According to TuttoJuve, Juventus is preparing for the winter transfer window with a clear priority: strengthening the central defense.

The club aims to re-establish the strong defensive identity that has historically defined its success. The current season has exposed certain vulnerabilities, caused by repeated injuries and inconsistent performances from key players.

This has pushed the management to accelerate plans for defensive reinforcement. President Gianluca Ferrero has emphasized the need for a reliable central defender who brings experience, leadership, and calmness under pressure.

Juventus is competing on multiple fronts, and a stable defensive unit is essential. The club is targeting a player who already knows how to operate at the highest level, especially in intense European matches.

The desired profile is very specific. The club wants a center-back who reads the game well, communicates effectively, organizes the back line, and maintains focus during crucial moments. The priority is not only physical solidity, but also strong personality and maturity.

In this context, TuttoJuve reports that Juventus has placed Milan Skriniar among its top targets. The Slovak defender, well known in Serie A from his successful years at Inter, has the qualities the Bianconeri are looking for.

His strong character, leadership, and tactical intelligence make him one of Europe’s most respected central defenders.

Skriniar’s position and the Fenerbahçe stance

Skriniar currently plays for Fenerbahçe, with a contract valid until 2029. Since his arrival in Turkey earlier this season, he has quickly become a pillar of the team. He has already played 10 matches in the Süper Lig and scored one goal.

His presence has earned the trust of both supporters and club executives. Juventus has reportedly submitted an official offer for the defender, aiming to convince Fenerbahçe to negotiate.

However, the Turkish club does not seem open to releasing their defensive leader. Skriniar, 30 years old and experienced with 85 appearances and 3 goals for Slovakia, is considered essential to their current project. He is settled, respected, and viewed as irreplaceable.

Despite the difficulty of the deal, Juventus is expected to continue monitoring the situation. If the opportunity arises, the club will be ready to act. The winter market often evolves rapidly, and strategies can change suddenly.

Juventus remains determined to restore its defensive strength, and Skriniar represents a strong step in that direction, should negotiations eventually progress.
