Pogba’s exit has cleared significant space on their wage bill, enabling the Turin giants to pursue reinforcements.
Reports from TuttoSport suggest that Juventus are prioritizing a defender and a striker, with Manchester United’s Joshua Zirkzee, Arsenal’s Jakub Kiwior, and Tottenham’s Radu Dragusin emerging as potential targets.
Each of these players has struggled to cement a starting spot at their respective clubs, opening the door for possible negotiations.
Zirkzee, who joined Manchester United from Bologna during the summer transfer window, scored on his debut but has since found opportunities limited, netting just one goal in 16 appearances.
The 23-year-old is currently behind Rasmus Højlund in the pecking order, though new manager Ruben Amorim’s preferences could alter his role in the squad.
At Tottenham, Dragusin has been used primarily in cup competitions and as cover for injuries, with Cristian Romero and Micky van de Ven occupying the first-choice center-back positions.
Meanwhile, Arsenal’s Kiwior has been a rotational player since his arrival from Spezia in January 2023. His struggles were highlighted during a match against Bournemouth, where a costly error led to his substitution.
The upcoming transfer window could see Juventus leverage their financial flexibility to secure one or more of these players, as they aim to bolster their squad for the remainder of the season.
