January will bring at least one central defender

Giuntoli’s priority for the January market è is clear to everyone: a central defender of great quality is needed. Because of the serious injuries to Bremer and Cabal, Thiago Motta needs a defender to replenish the back pack and face the second half of the season without any worries.

Giuntoli, the Bianconeri’s market man, è already working to please his coach. For weeks the names of Skrniar, who is not very happy at PSG, and Antonio Silva, a defender in force at Benfica, have been mentioned, but, in the last few hours, a new opportunity would have arisen, namely Tah of Bayer Leverkusen.

Born in 1996, the German central è has a great physique (195 cm) and è is dominant on high balls. He has worn the Bayer Leverkusen jersey since 2015. Flag-bearer of the club, he però has an expiring contract and, at the moment, renewal does not seem such a viable option. In short, Tah seems destined to change teams, perhaps as early as January.

Juventus would be thinking about it even if, in Germany, they speak of strong interest from Barcelona, another club aiming to reinforce its defense. At this point, it will have to be understood whether or not the Old Lady, through Giuntoli, will want to step up in a major way for Tah.
