Juventus Reignites Greenwood Pursuit, Explores Goretzka & Silva Amid Tonali Battle
Juventus is reportedly reigniting its pursuit of Mason Greenwood. Meanwhile, heightened competition from Arsenal and Manchester United for Sandro Tonali has spurred the Bianconeri to advance discussions with potential free agents Leon Goretzka and Bernardo Silva.
The club is strategically preparing for the upcoming summer transfer window, with key priorities being securing Champions League qualification and finalizing Luciano Spalletti's contract extension. An agreement with Spalletti is reportedly imminent, with the Italian coach anticipated to sign a new deal around Easter.
Discussions between Juventus and Spalletti have already covered potential squad enhancements for the 2026-27 season. Among the targets, the Serie A giants have reportedly re-identified Marseille's Mason Greenwood as a primary summer acquisition.
Reports suggest Marseille might be compelled to sell Greenwood due to financial pressures if they fail to qualify for the Champions League, with an expected transfer fee of at least €50 million. Juventus has closely monitored Greenwood throughout the current season, but their ability to afford his transfer is contingent on securing a spot in the Champions League.
Two years prior, Greenwood was reportedly open to a move to Juventus, but Marseille ultimately secured the former Manchester United player's signature.
Leon Goretzka and Bernardo Silva, both potentially available as free agents this summer, are high on Juventus' list for central midfield reinforcements. Juventus has engaged in recent discussions with Goretzka and Silva, particularly due to the high asking price and strong Premier League interest (notably from Arsenal and Manchester United) for their primary midfield target, Tonali.
