Juve has made official the €3.8 million plus €0.2 bonus loan purchase of Renato Veiga from Chelsea. Here’s the statement: “Juventus is happy to welcome a new signing in this January market: Renato Veiga, a defender from Chelsea, goes on loan to the Bianconeri until the end of the 2024/25 season. A pliant player, who can also play the role of midfielder if necessary and who in England in recent months has played both as a left-back and central defender. Versatile and physical, Veiga has great athleticism-which allows him, among other things, to be incisive in winning aerial duels and on set pieces.”

“Born and raised football-wise at Sporting CP, the 2003-born Portuguese player went through the entire youth academy of the green-and-white club, reaching a call-up to the first team and then going on to play, in the 2022/23 season, in the Bundesliga at Augsburg. A year in Germany and then a move to Basel, with which he managed to establish himself at a high level and attract the attentions of Chelsea and the Premier League. Bought by the Blues last summer, Veiga collected a total of 18 appearances in this first half of the season, with two goals and one assist – all scored in the Conference League in a Chelsea shirt. Now, however, a new chapter opens, in Juventus colors, for a player who will ensure new alternatives and options for the coaching staff to better face the coming months. Welcome to Juventus, Renato!” the Bianconeri club concluded. Meanwhile, Vlahovic can leave immediately: Juve has decided <<<
