Juventus held a summit with Bayern Munich about ten days ago. The two powerhouses have often done business together in the transfer market in recent years. The two front offices met after the return leg against Lazio. Bianconeri directors Cristiano Giuntoli and Giovanni Manna traveled to Bavaria to attend it, Corriere dello Sport informs.
The Old Lady could be interested in Joshua Zirkzee under the right circumstances. The German side still somewhat controls his future thanks to a buy-back clause. Leon Goretzka, who’s been linked to them a few times, was another name on the table. After several years in the Bundesliga, he might decide to try a new experience.
In addition, Juventus might be keen on Bayern Munich stars Noussair Mazraoui as they are plotting to revamp their wings in the summer, and Leroy Sané. On the other hand, the plans of the counterparty are up in the air and will hinge on whom they hire as their new coach.
The two sides brokered a €77M deal for Matthijs De Ligt back in 2022.
Our Take on Juventus and Bayern Munich
It’s more likely that the Bavarians acquire from the Bianconeri than the other way around, although they are set in the roles of two of the main Old Lady stars, Gleison Bremer and Dusan Vlahovic. Perhaps Federico Chiesa could be in play. They are rumored to be a landing spot for Adrien Rabiot, but the Turin-based outfit has no say about that.
