Report: Openda to Lyon in coming days, loan terms made clear
One of the biggest mercato questions this summer was how Juventus and new director Giovanni Carnevali was going to dispose of unwanted players from past regimes. This has been a problem for successive front offices, as exemplified by the fact that Arthur Melo is suiting up for the Bianconeri in their friendly against Standard Liege […]
If Juventus can’t sign Emi Martinez, who should they go for to be their new starting goalkeeper?
We are about to see Juventus played their second friendly of the summer in a few hours. However, it’s fairly safe to say that whichever goalkeeper ends up playing for Juve against Standard Liège in Belgium shouldn’t be the one who is starting for the Bianconeri come the 2026-27 season opener against Frosinone less than […]
Reports: Juve still in contact with Parma for Zion Suzuki; Benfica’s Anatoliy Trubin added to list of goalkeeper options
As he talked with the Italian press following Juventus’ first friendly of the summer this past Saturday, head coach Luciano Spalletti confirmed what we all pretty much knew by now: “It’s true that we’re looking for a goalkeeper to be even more competitive.” It was a question about the situation regarding the status of the […]
Reports: Juventus trying to finalize Joao Mario loan deal with Fiorentina
We know one of the former sporting chief’s misfits could be heading out on loan in the hopes of trying to get him to convince somebody else to buy him for good. But that’s already been the case for one of Damien Comolli’s “brilliant” (disrespectfully) signings from last summer — and now he’s back in […]
Reports: Juventus close to finalizing Loïs Openda loan move to Olympique Lyonnais
For much of the second half of the 2025-26 season, the only real talking point surrounding Juventus forward Loïs Openda was simply how little he was playing. He had fallen completely out of favor with new manager Luciano Spalletti, and it was clear that Openda had no place in Juve’s present and future plans. That […]
Juventus Women has a new coach, plenty of new faces and a whole lot of unknowns
The 2025-26 season for Juventus Women was not a particularly good one. They ended up in third place in Serie A Women, 16 points below Scudetto winners Roma. This was their worst finish since joining the league in 2017, having either won the title (2017-18 through 2021-22 and 2024-25) or finished in second place to […]
Report: Juventus and Dusan Vlahovic are talking again, but clear hurdles still remain
As we get ready for the final weekend of July, it looks as though Juventus aren’t yet totally ready to quit their old fling of the last 4 1/2 years. That is, it seems as though Juve have picked up the phone and called their ex — or in this case, their former No. 9. […]
Bologna CEO opens the door to Juventus transfer target Jhon Lucumí leaving this summer
Juventus want to sign Bologna center back Jhon Lucumí, the Colombian center back who is coming off a strong showing at the World Cup in North America. That interest is well-establish, but we know there is some competition both from Serie A and aboard — making things a little more complicated because, you know, money […]
Report: With World Cup over, Juventus hope Emi Martinez will force his hand to make a move happen
It has been six weeks since Juventus reportedly agreed to personal terms with Aston Villa goalkeeper Emi Martinez, the clear-cut No. 1 choice in goal for a new-look Bianconeri front office that very much wants to move on from Michele Di Gregorio. The problem with the move not happening in quick fashion has been two-fold: […]
The Old Lady Speaks Podcast, Episode 347: Zeki Çelik signs with Juventus out of nowhere
Juventus have not done much business so far this summer under their new CEO, but the two players that they’ve signed under Giovanni Carnevali’s watch have come about in the same kind of manner. There’s been little to no reporting for the days leading up to an official announcement, and then suddenly there’s a player […]
Jeff Ekhator to miss three weeks after early injury exit in Juventus’ first summer friendly
It took less than 30 minutes of Juventus’ first friendly of the summer for there to be injury worries about one of the players in the starting lineup against FC Basel. (On top of, you know, all the other injury worries we currently have about a couple of Juventus’ other players and their potentially troublesome […]
Which Juventus player had the best World Cup?
With Sunday’s final (and all of the Argentina shithousery) now in the past, we can officially close the door on the 2026 FIFA World Cup. Over 100 games played, over 300 goals scored and many hydration breaks in between, we now have a new world champion — and it’s the same nation that was crowned […]
Open 2026 World Cup Watch Thread: Spain vs. Argentina
It’s the final day of the 2026 FIFA World Cup! We’re down to the final 90 minutes (or more of regular/extra time), the last couple of hydration breaks (with or without commercials) and one way-too-long halftime show before the tournament is over with. Here is the schedule for Day 34, the final day, of the […]
Reports: Juventus in contact with Kessie, but competition may loom
One of the nastier surprises to pop up as Juventus began preseason training was the revelation that Khéphren Thuram was going to miss the entire preseason with runner’s knee. A constant presence in the lineup the last two years, his absence will shine a light on the team’s lack of depth in the midfield. Douglas […]
Juventus striker hunt still focused on Pellegrino, Kolo Muani as talks continue
There are a couple of areas on the Juventus roster that are in something of a state of upheaval as preseason dawns, and the biggest mess is up top. Juventus is all over the place at the striker position. Their three strikers last year are either out of contract (Dusan Vlahovic) or failed so spectacularly […]
Game Time Thread: Juventus vs. FC Basel
MATCH INFO When: Saturday, July 18, 2026. Where: St. Jakob-Park, Basel, Switzerland. Official kickoff time: 3:30 p.m. local time in Switzerland and across Europe, 2:30 p.m. in the United Kingdom, 9:30 a.m. Eastern time, 8:30 a.m. Central time, 6:30 a.m. Pacific time. STARTING LINEUPS Juventus starting XI (4-2-3-1): Di Gregorio; Kalulu, Gatti, Kelly, Cambiaso; Douglas Luiz, Locatelli; Zhegrova, Adzic, […]
Spalletti pulls no punches at first preseason press conference: ‘We’re quite far away from the Scudetto right now’
When Juventus manager Luciano Spalletti stepped up to the microphone for his first press conference of the 206-27 season, he had been on the training fields of Continassa for the past five days with a team that looks a lot like the one that finished outside of the Champions League places a few months earlier. […]
OFFICIALLY OFFICIAL: Juventus swoop in, sign Zeki Çelik from under Roma’s nose
The Turkish contingent at Juventus has just added another name to its roster. And seemingly out of nowhere, too. Juventus announced on Thursday evening that they have signed free-agent defender Zeki Çelik, seemingly taking him right from under the nose of his now-former club Roma, who looked like they were going to sign him to […]
Juventus has a process problem
Stop me if you’ve heard this before: Juventus is a club in free fall. For years now, they’ve had the second highest wage bill in Serie A — and that’s still true even if you cut Dusan Vlahovic’s wages by 75%. The results over the last several years as a big spender in the league […]
Report: Another improved Juventus bid for Randal Kolo Muani is on the way
Juventus CEO and General Manager Giovanni Carnevali may have said earlier this week that Paris Saint-Germain’s demands for Randal Kolo Muani were too high and their willingness to come down from them wasn’t looking all that encouraging, but it doesn’t mean he’s going to suddenly stop negotiations. At least not yet. According to Sky Italia’s […]

Khephren Thuram, like Kenan Yildiz, is still dealing with a lingering knee issue
It didn’t take long for us to have our first Juventus injury of the worry for preseason training. And just like the most notable one that is basically carrying over from the end of the 2025-26 season that had us all wondering how the heck the best player on the roster was going to look […]
Reports: Tarik Muharemović set for Leeds United move, Juve to receive 50% of €40 million fee
Less than a two weeks Juventus were reportedly trying to close a deal for former Next Gen product and current Sassuolo center back Tarik Muharemović. Then the Premier League came calling again. And who could blame Sassuolo for wanting in on that? On Tuesday, reports confirmed what we had pretty much seen coming all weekend […]
