Juventus has turned its attention to Lazar Samardzic from Udinese as one of the primary targets to bolster their midfield.
During a recent meeting between head coach Max Allegri and sporting director Giuntoli, the Serbian midfielder’s name emerged as a potential option, leading to initial inquiries being made with the Friulian club.
However, before finalizing any deal, Juventus must first address their outgoing transfers and then face competition from Napoli and Inter.
Udinese values the 2002-born player at around €25 million and may consider a similar arrangement to the Udogie-Tottenham transfer, involving a loan back to Udine for another season.
The Bianconeri has identified Lazar Samardzic as a key player to reinforce their midfield.
The talented Serbian midfielder has caught the attention of the club’s management, prompting initial discussions and inquiries with Udinese.
While Juventus is keen on securing Samardzic’s services, they must first address their outgoing transfers.
The club needs to streamline their squad and potentially offload some players to create space and financial flexibility for new signings.
Once this aspect is resolved, Juventus can fully focus on pursuing Samardzic and finalizing a deal with Udinese.
