Juventus rebuffed over Charles De Ketelaere

Not now, not at any price the club was prepared to say out loud. Atalanta have kept their man, and Juventus go back to a list with one name crossed off it.

Enrico Delprato arrives at Juventus in a $17.9M statement of intent

There comes a point where a club either backs its own ambition or admits it does not have any. Juventus have paid $17.9M for Enrico Delprato, which is the loudest way there is of saying which one it chose.

Market18 Jan 2027

Andrea Cambiaso moves on

Palermo pay $20.9M, and the deal is done. The number reads well on a balance sheet; whether it reads well on the pitch is next season's question.

Transfer targets18 Jan 2027

Juventus bid $10.0M for Lautaro Valenti

The offer went to Parma this week and it is theirs to answer. First bids are rarely meant to succeed; they are meant to find out how loud the door closes.

Market18 Jan 2027

Juventus say no — this time

The offer from Napoli for Jeff Ekhator was heard out and sent back the same day. First bids are rarely meant to succeed; they are meant to find out how loudly the door closes.

Federico Bicoro puts it in writing

“This is not anger. I have thought about it for months, and nothing that has happened lately changed my mind.” The request is on a desk at Juventus, and it is not being withdrawn.

Squad18 Jan 2027

Enrico Delprato gets the move he always wanted

Footballers are asked about their boyhood club so often that nobody listens to the answer. Enrico Delprato has just signed for Juventus, and for once the answer mattered.

Squad18 Jan 2027

Words exchanged at Juventus

Bremer and a teammate said things this week that will take longer than a week to unsay. It was not about football, and both of them play on Saturday.

Match16 Jan 2027

Juventus make home a hard place to visit

9 without defeat on their own grass. The pitch has not changed; the crowd has — louder earlier, and quicker to sense when the opposition would rather be somewhere else.

Squad14 Dec 2026

Jeff Ekhator takes the match ball home

7 goals in one afternoon from one man. The other players were also present, a witness confirmed.

Match9 Dec 2026

Jeff Ekhator sends Juventus through

Cup ties wait for somebody to seize them, and Jeff Ekhator obliged against Alcione Milano. 11‑0 on the night, and the name in the next round’s hat is Juventus.

Player ratings14 Dec 2026

Nobody could get near Edon Zhegrova

Successful dribbles: 32. Every time he got the ball somebody had to make a decision, and every time the decision was wrong.

Player ratings14 Dec 2026

Jeff Ekhator, 20, steals the show — 10.00

Marked 10.00 at 20, in a side that makes no allowances for age. He did not need any, and he looked the least nervous man on the pitch.

Player ratings14 Dec 2026

Age has not caught Filip Kostić yet — 8.35

At 34 he is supposed to be managing his minutes. Instead he was marked 8.35 and looked, for ninety minutes, exactly like the player everybody remembers.

Match12 Dec 2026

9 unbeaten for Juventus

Hard to beat is not the same as winning, but 9 matches without defeat is a foundation Juventus did not have in the autumn.

The dugout14 Dec 2026

Carlo Pinsoglio: that is not what I was promised

“Things were said to me before I signed. I am not going to repeat them, but I remember all of them.” Juventus have not answered, which is an answer of sorts.

Squad14 Dec 2026

Francisco Conceição in a row with a teammate

It was not about football and everybody who saw it knows that. Two men who have to play together on Saturday said things at Juventus this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Market14 Dec 2026

Edon Zhegrova wants more than Juventus are offering

“I have ambitions, and I would like the club to share them.” Nobody has asked to leave and nobody has been shown the door — but a player chooses that sentence carefully, and a boardroom hears it exactly as it was meant.

In brief
