Juventus head coach Luciano Spalletti has expressed his delight following the arrival of Guglielmo Vicario, insisting the Bianconeri have secured a "top player" despite his recent struggles in the Premier League. Speaking after a pre-season friendly at the Allianz Stadium, the tactician also addressed the signing of Colombian defender Jhon Lucumi as he reshapes his squad for the new campaign.
Juventus have made a significant breakthrough in their search for a new goalkeeper after reaching a full agreement with Tottenham Hotspur for Guglielmo Vicario. The Italy international is set to return to his homeland on an initial loan deal as the Bianconeri shift their focus away from Aston Villa and Argentina goalkeeper Emiliano Martinez.
Juventus have confirmed the permanent signing of Colombia international defender Jhon Lucumi from Serie A rivals Bologna on a long-term contract running until June 2030. The 28-year-old centre-back rejected five rival offers from across Europe to complete his switch to Turin and bolster the Bianconeri's defence ahead of the upcoming 2026-27 campaign.
Napoli have stepped up their pursuit of Dani Ceballos by submitting a formal offer to the former Real Madrid midfielder following his departure from the Spanish capital. The 30-year-old free agent is also attracting interest from Juventus and boyhood club Real Betis, but Massimiliano Allegri's side are now pushing hard to conclude a swift transfer.
Juventus have officially ended their pursuit of Aston Villa goalkeeper Emiliano Martinez after failing to agree on a transfer fee. The Italian giants have completely closed the chapter on the Argentine international, pulling the plug on the potential move due to excessive financial demands, forcing them to rapidly explore alternative options before the window shuts.
Juventus have taken the unusual step of publicly addressing recent transfer speculation by firmly denying any interest in Al Ahly goalkeeper Mostafa Shobeir. The Egyptian international had been heavily linked with a move to the Allianz Stadium as the Bianconeri continue their search for reinforcements between the sticks.
