Juventus have probed several wingers, and the candidacies of Galeno and Karim Adeyemi are gaining momentum, even though it’s notoriously hard to negotiate with Porto and Borussia Dortmund. An addition in such a role, Jean-Clair Todibo, and Teun Koopmeiners are Cristiano Giuntoli’s main priorities after cashing in on Matias Soulé and Dean Huijsen, La Gazzetta dello Sport relays.
Os Dragoes need to sell for Financial Fair Play-related reasons. The Brazilian attacker could be on his way out, and he wouldn’t mind a new experience. He’s been at the club since January 2022 and has recorded 33 goals and 21 assists in 122 tilts since.
His contract isn’t a factor since it lasts until 2028. His current team had signed him from Anapolis when he was a youngster, but they eventually sold him to Sporting Braga after multiple loan spells. They bought him back for nearly €10M. Porto value him €30M now.
Juventus will have to make a splash to onboard either Galeno or Adeyemi, but they seem prepared to do so. According to Sky, they have lodged an opening €35M bid, plus €10M add-ons for the latter. The Bundesliga side doesn’t seem too open to selling him.
They met with his father and agent recently, concurring on a €4M salary. He scored five times last season while mostly featuring on the left wing.
Our Take on Juventus, Galeno and Adeyemi
They are working on multiple tables and, considering they are eyeing a few options, they are more likely to cook up something with Porto than with Borussia Dortmund. However, it may take time as they have to conclude other tricky deals beforehand.
