The Milan Sports reported that before the visit to Genoa, Juventus coach Tudor welcomed three wounded soldiers: Palin, Savona and Kabar.

Zebras defeated Parma to get a good start to the league, but some experts and fans are still worried about the team's bench depth, with Nico Gonzalez and Vlahovic both appearing on the bench. However, Juventus' lineup is still being strengthened, not only from the transfer market, but also the recovery and health of the injured.

According to the "Milan Sports" newspaper, the three players will resume training this week to catch up with the game against Genoa this Sunday.

First is 32-year-old Mattia Palin, who underwent a hand surgery after the end of last season and has been out for months and has even missed the Club World Cup. This summer, there are constant rumors that Palin is about to leave, but now it seems that he may stay in the team and continue to serve as Digregorio's substitute.

followed by Nicollo Savona, who was injured in the Club World Cup against Manchester City. At the age of 22, he was originally a right-back, but showed his versatile attributes under Tudor, including the scavenger who served as the defense line.

Finally, after 10 months of absence, Juan Cabal finally returned to the team to participate in training. The Colombia defender suffered a serious cruciate ligament injury in the national team in November, causing him to reimburse his first season with the Turin giants. At the 24-year-old, he has the ability to replace Kelly as the left center back, or as the left wing as Cambiaso.

Cambiazos may be suspended for two games for violence against Parma, but Kabar is unlikely to be healthy at this stage to start, so Serbian international Kostic may become the starter.

Italian transfer expert Romano reported that Besiktas will sign Juventus defender Thiago Gallo and loan Atlanta striker Elbilar Toure with a buyout option.

Besiktas is expected to sign the two Serie A players soon. According to Romano, the Turkish club will loan Atlanta striker Toure, with the option to buy out.

In addition, Besiktas' next target is Juventus defender Gialo, Romano added that negotiations between the two clubs have entered a later stage.

Toure and Jalo both played on loan on loan in the 2024-25 season and returned to their respective clubs this summer. Toure played for Stuttgart, making 17 appearances in various competitions and scoring 3 goals, while Jaro played for Porto on loan.

Portuguese centre-back Gialo is not within the plan of Juventus coach Tudor, especially after the preseason performance is not convincing. Italian Sky Sports transfer expert Di Mazio also confirmed that Gallo is very close to permanent transfer Besiktas.

In January 2024, Juventus signed Gialo from Lille for about 3.5 million euros, but the Portuguese defender only played once for Juventus, that is, he appeared as a substitute against Monza in the last round of Serie A match in the 2023/24 season.

The Milan Sports reported that Juventus appears to miss Danish midfielder Matt O'Reilly due to the failure to reach a transfer agreement with Brighton, with two main reasons.

The Zebras have been looking for a new midfielder since this summer, but have not reached their goal so far. Realizing that Tonali is just a daydream, Portuguese sports midfielder Jurmander's termination fee is too high, they turn to the more affordable O'Reilly. However, after weeks of negotiations, the breakthrough has never been achieved.

According to the "Milan Sports" newspaper, Juventus' pursuit of O'Reilly was hindered by two major factors. First, they have been trying to rent the Danish, with the option of buying, and are willing to increase their obligations to buy out clauses. However, Seagull just wants to sell O'Reilly this summer, otherwise it's OK to be arguably.

Secondly, despite sending Douglas Luis to Nottingham Forest, Juventus still has to sell more players to fund the deal, with Vlahovic and Nico Gonzalez still being the main candidates.

At this stage, MiTi believes that Juventus' chances of signing O'Reilly are gradually decreasing. Therefore, unless there is any late turning point, this deal is unlikely to happen.

Nevertheless, coach Tudor may not mind not joining the midfielder, as he seems to be increasingly convinced that Kupmenas will play a more important role. There are also midfield positions, Toulam, Locatelli, McKennie and Mireti, who is currently recovering from injury. The head coach has five players competing for two starting positions.

Italian transfer expert Pedula reported that Juventus still regards Kloe Muani as their number one signing target and is preparing to make a new offer to Paris Saint-Germain: 10 million euros loan, plus 50 million obligation purchase terms.

Muani played football with the Zebras on loan in the second half of last season and also went to the United States to participate in the club World Cup. Juventus has always wanted the French international to stay with the team and be able to reach a deal at a lower price, but PSG seems to have raised the asking price when the deal is about to reach an agreement.

Now Juventus intends to raise their offer to finalize the deal, and the decision to sign Muani will not change because of whether Vlahovic stays in the team. Juventus intends to loan Muani for about 10 million euros for one season and is obliged to pay another 50 million euros to buy out its ownership at the end of the season.

So far, Muani has refused to open the door to any other solution, as he just wants to wait for Juventus to reach an agreement with Paris Saint-Germain.
