Latest Mercato Update

Juventus continue to be one of the most active clubs on the market, showing clear intent to reinforce the squad both in the short and long term.

According to Niccolò Ceccarini of TuttoMercatoWeb, the Bianconeri have taken a decisive step forward and are now finalizing the details for the arrival of Youssef En-Nesyri from Fenerbahçe.

The Moroccan striker has already given his approval to the move and is expected to arrive in Turin in the coming hours. The acceleration on En-Nesyri was necessary after negotiations for Jean-Philippe Mateta became increasingly complicated.

Talks with Crystal Palace stalled due to major differences over the player’s valuation, followed by disagreements regarding the structure of the deal. Juventus therefore opted to change direction, quickly reaching an agreement with the Turkish club.

The operation is based on a paid loan worth around €1.5 million, with a purchase option set at €20 million. Juventus will also fully cover the player’s salary for the second half of the season.

This move, however, will not be the final attacking reinforcement. The club is well aware of the need to provide adequate rotation and support for Kenan Yildiz, whose importance in the squad continues to grow.

For the immediate future, Juventus are pushing to sign Juanlu Sánchez, a profile they value highly, although competition from Napoli remains strong.

A Look Ahead: Summer Targets and Free Agents

Beyond the current window, Juventus’ management is already planning for the summer. The goal is to further strengthen the squad with targeted additions capable of raising the overall quality and experience level.

As previously reported, Sandro Tonali remains the marquee name the club dreams of bringing to Turin, a signing that would represent a major statement for the next season.

At the same time, Juventus are carefully evaluating several free-agent opportunities. In defense, one of the main targets is Marcos Senesi of Bournemouth, appreciated for his blend of physical strength and technical reliability.

On the flanks, the Bianconeri have already secured Óscar Mingueza from Celta Vigo, reinforcing the wide areas ahead of time.

Midfield is another key focus. Franck Kessié, set to leave Al-Ahli at the end of his contract, is firmly on Juventus’ radar.

Talks with his representatives have already taken place, with salary demands representing the main obstacle to overcome.

Finally, Juventus are also closely monitoring Bernardo Silva …

… who is expected to conclude his chapter at Manchester City at the end of the season, making him an intriguing and ambitious potential addition.
