Due to the difficult economic situation, Juventus will most likely resort to their old habit this summer: attacking the most coveted free agents on the market.
As we all know, this strategy doesn’t always pay dividends, but the trick is to identify the right options that would fit the mold.
According to Calciomercato via ilBianconero, Juventus could end up chasing four future free agents in the summer of 2023.
The first name on the list is Alex Grimaldo, who will most likely leave Benfica once his contract expires at the end of the season. The Spaniard has established himself as one of the most impressive left-backs in Europe, which is exactly what the Bianconeri need.
Alternatively, the Italians could end up hot on the heels of Raphael Guerreiro, who has built a solid reputation for himself during his time at Borussia Dortmund. The Portuguese is 29 years old and is a more experienced alternative to Grimaldo.
On another note, both Juventus and Inter are aware of Chris Smalling’s situation in the capital. As the veteran defender negotiates a possible renewal with Roma, he could be swayed by a more lucrative offer.
Finally, Marcus Thuram will definitely be one of the most sought after free agents in the summer. But while Juventus closely monitors the situation, Bayern Munich and Inter could be the favorites to take over the Frenchman’s services.
