OFFICIALLY OFFICIAL: Juventus (finally) secure Randal Kolo Muani’s return to Turin
At long last, Randal Kolo Muani is a Juventus player again. Through all of the twists and turns that the last year has proved to provide both the player and Juventus’ attempts — even through different sporting chiefs — to bring him back to Turin, Kolo Muani’s priority never changed. He wanted to come back […]
OFFICIALLY OFFICIAL: Juventus sign Kerim Alajbegović in deal worth up to €35 million
The announcement of Juventus’ third signing of the summer of 2026 isn’t as big of a surprise and out of nowhere when compared to the first simply because of the days it took between the first reporting of it to the day he arrived at J Medical to undergo his exams. However, it’s still quite […]
New attackers set for Juventus medicals
Juventus had many needs in the summer transfer window, but perhaps the most pressing was along the front line. With Dusan Vlahovic out of contract and Jonathan David and Loïs Openda on the outs after horrific debut seasons, there had been a serious question about who exactly would play up front, especially at the No. […]
Has Douglas Luiz convinced enough this preseason to get another shot at Juventus?
While there have been plenty of players who wouldn’t normally start for Juventus’ senior team as a result of Luciano Spalletti’s squad being both short-handed and still completely full of holes, there’s been one name who has basically assumed a spot in the lineup that we thought he would two years and two managers ago. […]
Report: Zion Suzuki’s preference is to sign with Juventus this summer
With Juventus’ attempt to sign Aston Villa goalkeeper Emi Martinez looking rather dead in the water with every passing day, the need to pivot becomes all the more obvious. That means shifting to a new option in goal that may not be at the level or profile of Martinez in terms of accomplishments or experience, […]

Carnevali confirms Kolo Muani signing, Alajbegović talks and no meeting with Vlahovic
As we are all well aware of, it has been an interesting summer for Juventus and their new CEO, Giovanni Carnevali. The transfer window has been one that has been slow to develop, but it’s also one in which the majority of the Bianconeri’s signings thus far have been ones in which we haven’t really […]
With the Randal Kolo Muani saga now resolved, what is Juventus’ biggest transfer need?
The long — very, very, very long — negotiations for Randal Kolo Muani are now a thing of the past, with Wednesday bringing the news that Juventus and Paris Saint-Germain had finally agreed to a deal for the 27-year-old Frenchman. It won’t be too long before Kolo Muani is walking through the doors at J […]
Reports: Juventus closing in on deal to sign Bosnian starlet Kerim Alajbegović
Juventus’ new front office looks to have delivered us another surprise. So much for the summer mercato being slow, right? (Don’t actually answer that.) According to reports in both Italy and Germany on Wednesday, Juventus have an agreement in principle for teenage Bosnian winger Kerim Alajbegović, who seemingly announced himself to European football during the […]
Report: Juventus have a deal in place for Randal Kolo Muani
It seems like it may actually be happening. After two summers of on-again, off-again pursuit, Juventus have got their deal in place for Randal Kolo Muani. Le Parisien were the first to report the deal being done, saying that Kolo Muani would be reporting for his medical and to make the signing official on July […]
It looks like Juventus are truly entering the ‘decisive hours’ for Randal Kolo Muani
It has been quite a while since Juventus have had a transfer saga that has stretched on for months and months and months, with multiple sporting area chiefs leading negotiations before ultimately being dismissed. But that is very much the case as Juventus has had to try and bring Randal Kolo Muani back to Turin […]
OFFICIALLY OFFICIAL: Loïs Openda loaned to Lyon
Juventus have gotten one of their out-of-favor players off the roster — at least for a year. In a statement, the club announced that striker Loïs Openda has been sent to Olympique Lyon on a dry loan. Lyon will pay a loan fee of €3.5 million. The transfer amounts to a general audition for Openda, […]
Which Juventus youngster has impressed the most in the first two summer friendlies?
Juventus have played the first 180 minutes of a very busy summer friendly schedule. (If only the summer mercato was as busy as the team will be over the next couple of weeks, right? I’ll let you decide that for yourself.) And because of a handful of players having staggered returns from their respective post-World […]
Report: Como enter the race to sign Bologna’s Jhon Lucumí
As one of the clubs rumored to be interested in Juventus transfer target and Bologna center back Jhon Lucumí look elsewhere to bring in a new player at the back, another Serie A club with Champions League football on the schedule this coming fall appears to have entered the fray. One with deep pockets wanting […]
The Old Lady Speaks Podcast, Episode 348: Juventus’ quiet summer mercato heads into the final days of July
The quiet Juventus summer mercato of 2026 rolled on into the final weekend of July, with no new players arriving and a starting lineup in the second preseason friendly that was another reminder of just how little depth this club current has at hand. Yes, some of the best players on the team were not […]
Reports: Juventus have held talks with free agent John Stones (UPDATED)
Juventus are wading into the free agent waters once again for very obvious reasons. But this latest one is not all that convincing in terms of how affordable it may be. According to reports over the last 24 hours, Juventus are one of a handful of clubs who are talking with free-agent center back John […]
Luciano Spalletti says Juventus transfer target Emi Martinez ‘wants to change teams’
Juventus’ hunt for a new starting goalkeeper has been a saga that has now been drawn out for two months, with the start of the 2026-27 season being less than a month away and there being no actual resolution to things. Naturally, Juventus manager Luciano Spalletti was asked about the transfer market following his team’s […]
Game Time Thread: Juventus vs. Standard Liège
MATCH INFO When: Saturday, July 25, 2026. Where: Stade de Sclessin, Liège, Belgium. Official kickoff time: 8 p.m. local time in Belgium and across Europe, 7 p.m. in the United Kingdom, 2 p.m. Eastern time, 1 p.m. Central time, 11 a.m. Pacific time. STARTING LINEUPS Juventus starting XI (4-2-3-1): Di Gregorio; Kalulu, Gatti, Kelly, Cambiaso; Locatelli, Douglas Luiz; Licina, […]
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. […]
