- يوفنتوس eye Lookman for January swoop
- Zirkzee also monitored by the Bianconeri
- Vlahovic exit edges closer
وفق Tuttosport Juventus are exploring the possibility of signing Lookman in the January transfer window as they prepare for the likely departure of Vlahovic. The Nigerian forward recently rejoined أتالانتا training after a turbulent summer but is still seen as a player whose future lies away from Bergamo. Juve consider him one of the leading names to take on the striking role next year.
With the Serbian expected to leave Turin after what could be his final season, Juve are already building a shortlist of replacements. Lookman’s versatility and الدوري الإيطالي experience make him a strong candidate, though the Nerazzurri will demand a significant fee. The club are also keeping tabs on other forwards, with بولونيا‘s Santiago Castro, Parma’s Matteo Pellegrino and Atalanta’s own Gianluca Scamacca emerging as possible alternatives, according to reports.
Lookman’s situation mirrors Juve’s past approach with Jonathan David, where the Bianconeri monitored the striker long-term before securing his move. The 27-year-old Nigerian’s contract at Atalanta runs until 2027, but strained relations with the club after the summer saga suggest an early exit may be possible. متحد striker Zirkzee is another option under consideration, though his mixed الدوري الإنجليزي الممتاز spell has raised questions.
The Old Lady will continue discussions internally over the next months before deciding whether to formalise a January approach. Atalanta remain open to selling Lookman if the right offer arrives, while Juventus weigh up whether the Nigerian, Zirkzee, or a homegrown Serie A option is best suited to spearhead their attack beyond Vlahovic.
