Juventus break Benfica curse to advance to UCL knockout rounds
Benfica. Just talking about the Portuguese giants can make Juventus fans feel uneasy. It’s easy to see why. Coming into Wednesday’s Champions League league phase match between the two teams, Juve lost seven of nine games with only one win. (Writer’s note: In my post-draw piece in September, I wrote that Juve had never beaten […]
Juventus 2 – Benfica 0: Initial reaction and random observations
Personally, I am always a fan of Jose Mourinho coming to Turin looking to cause trouble and then, subsequently, leaving the Juventus Stadium with of those classic pouty faces that he is very much known for. After 95 minutes on Wednesday night, Mourinho had that kind of facial expression as he walked back down the […]

Champions League Preview: Juventus vs. Benfica

Reports: Juventus pushing for Youssef En-Nesyri deal as Mateta talks with Crystal Palace stall
For much of the past week, Jean-Philippe Mateta has looked as though he’s the striker that Juventus are solely targeting to try and bring in some attacking reinforcements during the winter transfer window. Making that happen, though, was not going to be as easy as the club might have thought when they opened talks with […]

The Old Lady Speaks Podcast, Episode 321: Juventus fall back to Earth with Cagliari loss

Report: Jean-Philippe Mateta pushing to leave Crystal Palace as Juventus prepare new offer
As much as the first week or two of January was dominated by talk of Federico Chiesa potentially coming back to Turin during the winter transfer window, Juventus’ push to bring in a new striker has come to the fore over the last few days, if only being magnified by the Bianconeri’s struggles to score […]
Report: Juventus sees first bid for Jean-Philippe Mateta rejected by Crystal Palace
In case you were wondering about Juventus’ intentions to try and bring in a new striker this month, it looks as though they are very much real and very much trying to happen in relatively quick order. We know this because Juventus have quickly accelerated their pursuit of Crystal Palace striker Jean-Philippe Mateta, reportedly submitting […]
Le Pagelle: Juventus vs. Cagliari
In this fallow period of Juventus history, the team has had a lot of issues when it comes to keeping up momentum. After two games that saw Juve obliterate opponents by a combined 8-0, there certainly seemed to be some momentum building up. And then it went kersplat in Sardinia. Juve continued to dominate the […]
Complacency dooms Juventus in shock loss to Cagliari
As Juventus frantically pushed for an equalizer for the last 25 minutes of Saturday’s stunning 1-0 loss against Cagliari, one question repeatedly came to mind: where was this urgency for the first 65 minutes? The rest of the match had been a completely one-sided affair. Juve finished the match with 78.1 percent of possession. Cagliari […]
Juventus 0 – Cagliari 1: Initial reaction and random observations
Giorgio Chiellini has become the official Juventus management figure who talks with the Sky Italia or DAZN before every fixture. And before kickoff on Saturday night in Sardinia, Chiellini had a warning for Luciano Spalletti’s squad. It was a simple one … “Tonight is one of those classic fixtures that can be a trap,” Chiellini […]

Reports: Juventus in talks with Crystal Palace to sign striker Jean-Philippe Mateta
We’ve heard plenty about Juventus’ interest in bringing Federico Chiesa back to Turin during the winter transfer window. However, it looks as though Juve are doing some more shopping in the Premier League — and it also involves somebody who would be added to the attacking line. According to multiple reports from the Italian press […]
Round 21: Juventus vs. Cagliari match preview

How Spalletti transformed Juventus’ defensive fortunes
It has been just four months since Juventus kicked off September by conceding seven goals over the span of two games against Inter Milan and Borussia Dortmund, followed by back-to-back 1-1 draws with Hellas Verona and Atalanta and a 2-2 stalemate at Villarreal. Juve then played to a scoreless draw with AC Milan and lost […]

Report: Federico Chiesa willing to take pay cut to make Juventus return happen
If it isn’t already abundantly clear, Juventus want to bring Federico Chiesa back to Turin this month after he’s spent the past year and a half mostly sitting on the Liverpool bench. The catch, as is usually the case with Juve when trying to make in-season moves during the winter transfer window, is to try […]
Reports: Juventus open talks over potential summer move for Marcos Senesi
While many of us are focused on what Juventus’ front office could potentially do to upgrade the 2025-26 roster during the winter transfer window, it appears as though the club is exploring something for the summertime as well.

Reports: Juventus pushing to sign Celta Vigo fullback Oscar Mingueza
We have noted rather frequently over the last few weeks that Juventus really only have one true option as a fullback on the right. And it just so happens that said option, Pierre Kalulu, has played every single minute of every single game so far this season — something that is surely testing every bit […]
Reports: Juventus set to re-open contract talks with Weston McKennie
Since Luciano Spalletti took over as manager at Juventus, Weston McKennie has been one of the Bianconeri’s best players. That’s on top of being a very good player under previous managers no matter how much he’s been bounced in and out of the squad’s present and future plans. Last we heard, the talks to extend […]
