Juventus like to point out a player Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta doesn’t have time, with a report naming two other, more sensible European clubs that look like willing interests at left-back.
While Juventus are in a good position to qualify for the Round of 16 in the Champions League without going through the playoffs, they are unlikely to win Serie A this season. Thiago Motta’s side are 13 points behind leaders Napoli in fourth place in the league table, and there is a danger that they will not even end up in the top four.
One of the spaces looking for Juventus for the next season is on the left. While Endrea Cambaso is working well on this paper, she was connected to Manchester City and can leave.
According to Fichajes, the Bianconeri have identified Nuno Tavares as a potential target. The report has claimed that Juventus have shown “serious interest” in the left-back, who is on loan at Serie A rivals Lazio at the moment.
The Turin club are planning to rebuild next season, and in Tavares, they see a young and dynamic player who has a lot of experience as well.
Tavares, 24, joined Lazio on a season-long loan deal from Arsenal in the summer of 2024. Having moved to the Gunners from Benfica in 2021, the Portugal international has failed to establish himself in Mikel Arteta’s first team and does not seem to have a future at the Emirates Stadium.
Tavares, who had a loan in Marseille in 2022-2010, did not have a great effect on when he was in a position for Nottingham Forest last season.
The 24-year year is now blossoming in Lazio. The left-back has collected 8 assists in 17 appearances for the Italian club, so this season.
Although Juventus would possibly think that Tavares can also play for them next season and beyond, the Bianconeri will be aware of the festival for the left side owned by the arsenal of two of its Italian rivals.
Signings reported that AC Milan and Inter Milan also had their eyes in Tavares. Milan and Inter to point to a new left and think that the 24 -year annual is the ideal candidate.
Lazio has the option of making the loan contract permanent at the end of the season. However, they are now in an awkward position to keep their backs on the left, with Juventus, Milan and Inter, all excited.
Tavares might return to Arsenal at the end of his loan spell at Lazio, but it is unlikely that Arteta will use him ever again, given that the Gunners manager decided to offload him, not once but three times on loan since 2022.
While Juventus is willing to raise new faces to his team, there is a danger that they can lose one of their players.
Andrea Cambiaso is one of the full-backs in Italy, and he can also function as a right-back or up front on the pitch.
Manchester City wants an agreement for Cambiasso and plans to make an offer of up to 54. 7 million pounds sterling.
However, the main coach of Juventus, Motta, obviously said he had to sell Cambiasso in the middle of the season.
Meanwhile, Juventus suffered its own blow in terms of creation in the January window.
Joshua Zirkzee is a player the former Italian champions are keen on. Juventus offered to sign Zirkzee on a six-month loan deal with an option to make it permanent.
However, United rejected this opportunity, which led Juventus to his attention to Randal Kolo Muani.
The striker Paris Saint-Germain is now about to register at the Turin Club in a loan agreement.
In the meantime, we, at Arsenal, are keen to nominate Juventus striker Dusan Vlahovic in the January transfer window.
TeamTalk Move correspondent Rudy Galetti reported that Vlahovic is Arsenal’s number one target in January, along with Mikel Arteta, a passionate admirer of the Serbian striker.
