Juventus Turin are striving to reclaim its former glory but couldn’t stop Inter Milan from clinching the Scudetto this season. Inconsistent, the Old Lady couldn’t compete consistently but aims to swiftly regain its former standing, both in Serie A and the Champions League. Amidst rebuilding, the Turin team is reportedly considering a player from Paris Saint-Germain for the upcoming season. La Gazzetta dello Sport identifies Manuel Ugarte as their target.

Juventus are preparing for a new chapter in its history. With Massimiliano Allegri possibly replaced by Thiago Motta in the Bianconeri’s dugout, youth is taking the reins at the Allianz Stadium. Witness the rise of Federico Chiesa, Dusan Vlahovic, Kenan Yildiz, Fabio Miretti, Hans Nicolussi Caviglia, and Andrea Cambiaso. However, with Adrien Rabiot’s future still uncertain as his contract expires in June, Juventus are seeking a new midfielder.

With Rabiot’s contract situation unresolved, Juventus have a shortlist of potential midfield reinforcements for the next season. Among them is Manuel Ugarte. Despite arriving at PSG last summer from Sporting CP for €60 million, the Uruguayan international hasn’t met expectations. Under Luis Enrique’s guidance, his playing time has diminished significantly throughout the season. Juventus aim to capitalise on Ugarte’s situation by securing a loan deal.

However, Ugarte is not Juventus’ top priority at present. They dream of luring Atalanta’s Teun Koopmeiners, but his €60 million price tag might deter them. Additionally, Martin Zubimendi, Mikel Merino, or Lazar Samardžić are also on Juventus’ radar.
