Juventus are facing a real race against time in this transfer window. As reported by Gazzetta dello Sport, the Turin side want to move on as many as ten players before the Italian market closes on September 1. That’s close to one exit per day, a bold strategy that shows just how badly the club needs to reshape the roster while cutting wages and making space for fresh signings.
The list is long. Goalkeeper Mattia Perin, defenders Tiago Djaló and Lloyd Kelly, full-back Nicolo Savona, midfielders Arthur, Weston McKennie, Fabio Miretti and Douglas Luiz, plus forwards Nico González and Dusan Vlahovic. Each situation is a little different, but the idea is the same: Juventus don’t see all of them as central figures for the 2025/26 project. Some are young players who could fetch good money, some are too expensive for the role they play, and a few have already made it clear they want out.
Perin and the defenders under pressure
At 32, Perin has only managed 17 appearances over the last two seasons. His deal runs until 2027, but he doesn’t want to sit on the bench anymore. The keeper has asked for a move and is waiting for the right offer that could guarantee him playing time. The problem is the goalkeeper market isn’t exactly easy, so his departure could take longer than he’d like.
Tiago Djaló spent last season on loan at Porto and it’s tough to see him fitting back into Juventus. The most likely outcome is another move to Portugal or maybe Spain. Lloyd Kelly is a slightly different story. His contract runs until 2029, but the size of his salary is a concern for the club. Letting him go would be more about finances than performances on the pitch.
Young players could bring in cash while midfielders are set to leave
Nicolo Savona and Fabio Miretti, both just 22, aren’t considered dead weight. Still, Juve are willing to hear offers. They’re seen as talents with solid resale value who could be sold without weakening the core of the squad.
Arthur, on the other hand, has been completely left out of Igor Tudor’s plans. He’s on the market for either a loan or a permanent transfer. And Douglas Luiz, signed only last year, didn’t last long. He was quickly placed on the transfer list and has now joined Nottingham Forest.
McKennie getting the spotlight
Weston McKennie is the one name catching the most attention outside Italy. A rising star with the USMNT, he’s become a key figure for American fans who follow Juventus closely. The club hasn’t closed the door on keeping him, but his contract ends in a few months. That means a decision has to come quickly: either extend his deal or sell him before he can leave for free. Premier League clubs are already watching closely.
Nico González and Vlahovic up front
Nico González never really nailed down a role at Juventus and is now seen as a player the club can cash in on. He might still generate some interest, but he hasn’t delivered what was expected. Vlahovic’s case is much bigger. He cost €75 million back in 2022 and is one of the highest earners in the squad. Juventus want to recover part of that investment, but finding a buyer ready to match their price is proving difficult.
Trying to push through ten exits in less than a month is almost like running a marathon. The board has to sell without lowering values, reduce the wage bill without weakening the squad, and still keep the team competitive for the season ahead. It’s a fine line to walk, and how they handle it will shape Juventus’ immediate future.
