In an exclusive interview with renowned Juventus transfer expert Mirko Di Natale of Tuttojuve, we delve into the latest developments surrounding the club’s managerial situation, potential transfers, and contract negotiations.

With his finger firmly on the pulse of Juventus’s transfer dealings, Di Natale provides invaluable insights into the inner workings of the Italian giants.

1. Max Allegri’s Future at Juventus

“The decision regarding Max Allegri‘s future at Juventus is not contingent on the club’s season performance. As of now, Allegri has not received any communication regarding his future or potential replacements.

“While no meetings are currently scheduled between Allegri and the club, discussions will ensue to either negotiate a renewal or communicate his departure from Juventus. It appears that these may indeed be Allegri’s final months as the Juventus coach.”

2. Thiago Motta as Allegri’s Potential Replacement

“I can confirm that Juventus has engaged in discussions with Thiago Motta regarding the managerial position. Personally, I believe Motta would be a fitting choice due to his youthfulness and innovative ideas. Motta’s success, particularly at Bologna, showcases his potential as a managerial talent, with his most notable achievement being his stint at Spezia.”

3. Matias Soulè’s Future and Interest from Premier League Clubs

“Regarding Matias Soulè’s future at Juventus, there are no significant updates to report. Soulè has garnered interest from Premier League clubs and harbors ambitions of playing in England. Juventus will evaluate any substantial offers, as they would with other players.

“The ultimate decision may also be influenced by the appointment of the new coach, with indications that Motta holds Soulè in high regard.”

4. Federico Chiesa’s Contract Negotiations

“Negotiations regarding Federico Chiesa‘s contract extension have been ongoing between the club and his agents. However, these discussions have been postponed until the conclusion of the season, with Juventus prioritizing their Champions League campaign.

“Ideally, Juventus aims to extend Chiesa’s contract until 2026, but the possibility hinges on whether Chiesa accepts a salary adjustment. Additionally, Juventus anticipates the departure of several players, with negotiations primarily focused on permanent transfers for two players.”

5. Gleison Bremer Amid Interest from Manchester United

“Manchester United has expressed interest in acquiring a top-tier defender, with Gleison Bremer being a potential target. While there is no release clause in Bremer’s contract for the summer of 2024, I am confident that substantial offers will be made for his services.

“It’s not only Manchester United but also other English clubs seeking defensive reinforcements who are closely monitoring Bremer’s situation.”

Bonus: Potential Transfer Targets

“Looking ahead to April, I anticipate notable developments regarding certain players. Keep an eye out for updates on Felipe Anderson, Lewis Ferguson, and Riccardo Calafiori.”

As Juventus navigates a pivotal juncture in its history, Mirko Di Natale’s insights provide a fascinating glimpse into the club’s future trajectory.

With speculation rife and anticipation mounting, Juventus supporters eagerly await the unfolding of events under the watchful eye of the transfer expert.
