Juventus sporting director Cristiano Giuntoli provided crucial updates on the club’s transfer plans ahead of their 2-0 victory over AC Milan. Speaking to DAZN in the pre-match buildup, Giuntoli addressed growing speculation surrounding Andrea Cambiaso’s potential move to Manchester City and provided clarity on the imminent signing of Randal Kolo Muani.
On Cambiaso: “No Offers Yet, But We’ll Evaluate”
Amid reports linking full-back Andrea Cambiaso with a potential switch to Manchester City, Giuntoli dismissed the notion of an ongoing negotiation but left the door open for future developments.
“Honestly, there is no negotiation at the moment,” Giuntoli said. “We want to focus on incoming transfers to address gaps caused by injuries. No extraordinary offer has arrived, but if it does, we’ll evaluate it.”
The 23-year-old Cambiaso has been a standout performer this season, impressing with his defensive reliability and attacking contributions down the left flank. It’s no surprise that elite clubs like Manchester City are reportedly monitoring him, but Juventus appears determined to retain his services unless presented with an irresistible bid.
On Kolo Muani: “It’s Just Bureaucracy”
Giuntoli also sought to reassure fans regarding the delayed arrival of French striker Randal Kolo Muani. The Eintracht Frankfurt star, widely reported to have agreed on a move to Turin, has yet to be officially unveiled, leading to concerns over the deal’s status.
“There’s been a minor procedural issue, but it will be resolved this week,” Giuntoli explained. “We’re calm and confident.”
Kolo Muani’s signing is expected to provide a significant boost to Juventus’ attacking options, especially as the team looks to solidify its place in the top four and challenge for silverware in the latter half of the season.
Juventus’ Transfer Approach
Juventus remains one of the most active clubs in the January transfer window, with Giuntoli emphasizing the importance of reinforcing the squad. Injuries have exposed vulnerabilities in key positions, and the club is focused on shoring up depth to maintain momentum in both domestic and European competitions.
While the Cambiaso situation is still developing, it’s clear that Juventus is prioritizing stability and addressing immediate needs rather than cashing in on their prized young talents.
What’s Next?
With two weeks remaining in the transfer window, all eyes will be on Juventus to see how they navigate potential offers for Cambiaso and finalize the arrival of Kolo Muani. For now, Giuntoli has struck a calm and pragmatic tone, signaling that Juventus is prepared for both opportunities and challenges in the market.
Juventus fans can take solace in their team’s decisive 2-0 victory over Milan, a result that underscores the club’s ambition. As for Cambiaso and Kolo Muani, their stories are ones to watch in the coming
