Report: Juventus rebuff Arsenal’s recent approach regarding Kenan Yildiz

It’s no secret that Juventus are in a vulnerable situation this summer financially. As much as they want to upgrade the squad following their sixth-place finish this past season, they won’t be able to do so without Champions League football and the financial benefits that come with it. That means selling names to try and […]

Set piece picks: A World Cup prediction challenge for the BWRAO community

A few weeks ago, I put together a world cup prediction app — Set Piece Picks — and I’m opening it up to the BWRAO community for the tournament. This post is mostly just a walkthrough of how to get started, but I’ll say upfront: I built it to be simple, low-commitment, and as private […]

Reports: Juventus open talks with Emi Martinez as goalkeeper search rolls on

Monday’s transfer rumor cycle involves Juventus being linked with a goalkeeper who is South American and has played in the Premier League for the last handful of years. No, it’s not Liverpool goalkeeper Alisson Becker, who is feeling as pretty that-ship-has-sailed as it can get. Instead, it’s the starting goalkeeper for the team that finished […]

May’s Monthly Juventus Thoughts: Obsolete

The final month of the 2025-26 season started with great hope. After Como suffered some crucial negative results in May, we went into the month knowing that a few wins in May would secure a spot in the top four and qualification for next season’s UEFA Champions League League Stage. But, as has happened many […]

Reports: Juventus agree to personal terms with Alexander Sørloth

When it comes for Juventus’ hunt for a new No. 9, a whole lot of signs continue to point toward a very large Norwegian being just that for the Bianconeri. On Sunday, there was another step in the right direction. According to multiple reports out of Italy, Juventus and Atlético Madrid striker Alexander Sørloth have […]

The Tepid Take: Juventus’ Jonathan David experiment has been a bust

So, I have a godson who just turned 12 this year. Stay with me, it’s relevant. His father and I are both Canadian soccer fans and Azzurri supporters. (He’s a Milanista for the record, so I guess that makes us both gluttons for punishment.) One way we refer to the lengthy amount of time that […]

Reports: Juventus advancing in talks with Alexander Sørloth

As we head into the first weekend of June, one thing seems rather clear: Juventus want to add a big Norwegian striker to their ranks ahead of the 2026-27 season getting underway. OK, so it’s not that one you’re probably thinking of right off the bat. But it is one that is going to be […]

Same goals, different story: What the numbers actually say about Dusan Vlahovic

It started, as many good calcio arguments do, with numbers. Fefu kicked it off this time, laying out the comparison simply. Gonzalo Higuaín and Dusan Vlahovic, side by side, at Juventus. Same goals. Same Serie A goals. Nearly identical minutes. The assists gap barely registers. “Logic and numbers say that Vlahovic should be seen as […]

Juventus to open 2026-27 season on the road against newly-promoted Frosinone

The last time Juventus went to the Stadio Benito Stirpe in Frosinone, it was the official coming out party for Kenan Yildiz, with the then-teenager scoring his first goal for the club at the senior level two days before Christmas in 2023. It is at that same stadium where Yildiz and Juventus will open the […]

Juventus 2025-26 Season Ratings: The Manager(s)

For the second consecutive year, this final section of our season ratings has not one but two managers. That, obviously, is not a good thing. It is another one of the many damming statements about what has led to the current state of Juventus in 2026. The club started what they thought would be a […]

Reports: It’s over between Juventus and Dusan Vlahovic

Come the start of the 2026-27 season, Juventus will have a new player wearing the No. 9 shirt. That is because, as has been growing in likelihood over the last few weeks, things are over between Juventus and Dusan Vlahovic, their polarizing No. 9 who has been locked in a contract negotiations saga for much […]

Juventus 2025-26 Season Ratings: The Forwards

If you listened to this week’s episode of The Old Lady Speaks Podcast, you’d know that I’ve got some strong feelings about this year’s group of forwards. Indeed, in our season-ending extravaganza, I named a forward for MVP, LVP, biggest surprise, and biggest disappointment. The dysfunction up front was a key point in Juventus’ problems […]

Juventus 2025-26 Season Ratings: The Midfielders

Coaches come and coaches go. Entire boards resign in disgrace, get fired and new names are brought on board. Millions of Euros change hands over the course of the summer transfer window. A multitude of spanking fresh adidas kits hit the clearance racks, season after season. And, after all of that, Juventus still do not […]

The Old Lady Speaks Podcast, Episode 340: The 2025-26 Season Review Extravaganza

Some may call it an extravaganza. Others may say it’s simply a tradition we’ve done every year of this podcast continuing on despite a 2025-26 season to mostly forget. Either way, we are now a week out from another Juventus campaign coming to a close. And that means it’s time for us, your favorite Juventus […]

Juventus 2025-26 Season Ratings: The Defenders

You know what they say, championships are won with great defenses. Strangely enough, that wasn’t the case this season. Juventus had a better (!!!) defensive record than Serie A. champions Inter Milan this season, as we conceded 34 goals compared to Inter’s 35. The Bianconeri had the third-best defense in the league after Como (29) […]

Juventus 2025-26 Season Ratings: The Goalkeepers

For some random reason, starting our annual ratings series for the 2025-26 season with a quote from Tony Soprano feels rather appropriate. It is from one of the final episodes of the series, as Tony and Paulie Walnuts are sitting at a table in Florida having dinner with some friends (old and new). As Paulie […]

Which Juventus players will compete in the 2026 FIFA World Cup?

The 2026 FIFA World Cup is nearly upon us, and Juventus looks set to have a good amount of representation. Whilst certain players like Pierre Kalulu and Jérémie Boga have been overlooked by their national team managers, and whilst others like Dušan Vlahović and Manuel Locatelli have failed to qualify for the tournament, there are […]

Open Champions League Final Watch Thread

It’s Champions League final day, everybody. Hang out. Talk some ball. Watch what, on paper, looks to be a very, very interesting matchup between two very different styles of play. Can Paris Saint-Germain make it back-to-back UCL titles? Or will Arsenal make it a dream season with their first Champions League trophy? Time to find […]

Report: Liverpool holding strong in stance to not let Alisson leave this summer

Around the same time that Juventus’ interest in Liverpool goalkeeper Alisson Becker became a pretty well-established and well-reported fact, a potential speed bump came about: a contract clause in his soon-to-be expiring deal added another year onto things. That meant, instead of him being a free agent this coming summer, Alisson’s deal now ran through […]

Juventus transfer rumors and whispers, May 28

This is the news cycle we live in as people who write about football. The season isn’t even cold, and a World Cup is on the way, and the coming transfer window is still foremost in everyone’s minds. There’s a lot to happen before silly season truly comes upon us, but the rumors are already […]
