Juventus are determined to continue with Massimiliano Allegri and according to La Gazzetta dello Sport, Jorginho, Marcos Alonso and Antonio Rudiger are among their main transfer targets for 2022-23.
The Bianconeri are not going to part ways with their coach, although the Coppa Italia remains his last chance to win a trophy this season.
Tuttosport and La Gazzetta dello Sport confirm that Allegri will continue at Juventus and the club is already thinking about the next steps to strengthen the team in the upcoming season.
Rudiger, Jorginho and Marcos Alonso are among their main summer targets. Rudiger has been chased by the best clubs in Europe, including Real Madrid and Barcelona, and according to La Gazzetta, he is Juventus’ primary target in defence. Fiorentina‘s Nikola Milenkovic is seen as a possible alternative to the former Roma man.
One of Juventus’ priorities will be to replace the disappointing Alex Sandro and both Marcos Alonso and Renan Lodi have been monitored by the Bianconeri. The third and last Chelsea star linked with a move to Juventus is Jorginho.
Allegri wants to add quality in the middle of the park, but the Italy international has reportedly requested a €7m-a-year salary.
Sergej Milinkovic-Savic and Paul Pogba are also on Juventus’ agenda, but the Lazio midfielder has a high price tag, while Pogba’s salary may be too hefty for the club’s finances and the Frenchman won’t return to Turin if he doesn’t lower his wages.
Should Juve sign Pogba or Milinkovic, Allegri would use Locatelli as a deep-lying playmaker in 2022-23. Last but not least, Nicolò Zaniolo and Giacomo Raspadori are the possible replacements for the departing Paulo Dybala.
