Juventus, Cristiano Giuntoli must place two more

Turkey remains a very live lead

Right at the photo finish, Giuntoli è managed to place Tiago Dialò. The Portuguese central defender è; officially, a new Porto player. Dry loan and another problem solved for Juventus, considering that the 26-year-old Portuguese was one of the redundancies at the Bianconeri (he did not fit into the plans of new coach Thiago Motta).

In fact, Tiago Dialò goes to take Pepe’s place at Porto. Playing continuously, he could find the physical condition he lacks after the serious injury he suffered in 2023. Last year, in a Juventus jersey, he played only 16 minutes, in the last league match against Monza.

Having solved the Tiago Dialò grana, Giuntoli will now also try to find an arrangement for Arthur and Kostic, the other two out of the Juventus project. The former, after flirting with several clubs, both in Italy and abroad (there was also talk of Napoli), è still waiting for a call that could come from Turkey, just like for Kostic.

The 31-year-old Serbian national seemed destined to move to Saudi Arabia, but the negotiation with Al-Ittihad è blew up on the spot, forcing Giuntoli to think of a new strategy. Clearly, with almost all international markets closed, it è not at all simple.
