Juventus are under pressure to generate €13 million in player sales by next Tuesday to improve their financial standing and avoid further capital increases, according to reports in Italy. The club’s new sporting director, Giovanni Carnevali, is reportedly finding the situation more challenging than anticipated, with limited progress on incoming transfers and a standstill in securing player departures.
This summer’s transfer strategy is dictated by the need to sell before buying, and any new arrivals must have a lower financial impact than previous signings. The situation is further complicated by the ongoing FIFA World Cup, which makes negotiating deals for players involved in the tournament difficult, as clubs are hesitant to risk potential injuries during the competition.
Despite reported interest from Premier League and Bundesliga clubs, defender Gleison Bremer is reportedly reluctant to leave Juventus, having previously expressed his desire for the club to accelerate its return to winning ways. His release clause stands at €58 million, valid from July 1st. Similarly, full-back Andrea Cambiaso is prioritizing a stay in Turin, though Chelsea and Barcelona remain potential suitors, and Juventus would reportedly accept an offer of around €40 million for him.
Juventus are exploring several avenues for generating revenue, including the sale of players with percentage-sell-on clauses, such as Muharemovic and Savona. They are also considering loan deals with obligation to buy, exemplified by potential arrangements for Openda. Talks are ongoing with Bologna regarding midfielder Fabio Miretti, with a potential fee of around €15 million, while Joao Mario is also a target for the Rossoblù, though he reportedly prefers a move to Fiorentina. Negotiations for Nico Gonzalez with Atletico Madrid have stalled due to a valuation gap, and Arthur and Alessio Di Gregorio have attracted interest from Besiktas, though Di Gregorio is holding out for offers from the English Premier League.
The club is hoping to finalize some sales by the end of the week to unlock further transfer activity and break the current deadlock.
