The Juventus management is working hard to shore up Luciano Spalletti’s lineup, and the Bianconeri club is focusing its efforts on finding experienced elements. In recent weeks the name has been mentioned of Sergio Ramos, who will soon be free from Monterrey, but there is some doubt about the physical fitness of a player who will turn 40 in March. Similar discourse for Antonio Rüdiger: although considerably younger than Sergio Ramos (the German will blow out 33 candles in March), he has missed many games in recent seasons due to physical problems. On Juventus’s notebook, however, is the name of Raphaël Guerreiro to shore up the defense.

Juve ko, Ezio Greggio’s fury goes viral
The comedian, a well-known Bianconeri fan, published a fiery post against Spalletti’s team after the defeat against Napoli
The outburst has been shared by thousands of people, testifying to the malaise that is rife in the Juve world over the choices of the'current management
"I would like to know if the Juventus ownership realizes that it has put in key managerial points of the company of the incompetent and inexperienced"
"They have bought duds like Openda, David, Cabal and other half-asses who are not worthy to even be on the bench. We still have Kostic"
"Spalletti if he has to make changes he gets people running around the field, who don’t have the fundamentals, who throw the ball away and also make us get goals"
"Players (so to speak) who are not only not worthy of Juve but also not worthy of the last teams in the league standings"
"Poor Spalletti is a great coach but he can’t play a championship, in fact 3, not only without some Juve-like offspring…"

"… but at most with 7 or 8 good players while he would need at least 22"

"That of today, for me as a sick Juventus fan as I am and as all our fans are, is no longer “Juventus” neither in the managers nor in most of the players"
"Even tonight Giovanni and Umberto will not rest in peace. #ForzaJuve #untiltheend … but we are close"

The 1993-born Portuguese is expiring his contract with Bayern Munich and renewal at the moment seems very difficult. Vincent Kompany holds the player in high esteem and is not willing to sell him in January but it will be virtually impossible to prevent his farewell at the end of the season. Juventus has been monitoring him for some time and he is not the only Bayern Munich player in the Bianconeri&#8217s sights: there is also Leon Goretzka, who will leave Germany for free in the summer. Serie A is a very welcome destination for the midfielder (who was already approached by Napoli last summer) but he will have to significantly reduce his economic demands if he wants to experience our league.

To acquire the two Bayern Munich champions, Juventus will have to overcome competition from Jose Mourinho, who is determined to convince the two stars to move to Benfica. The Special One would even like to move up the timetable for Raphaël Guerreiro: he has already asked the Portuguese management to make an effort to buy him in January but the chances are very slim given Vincent Kompany’s desire to keep him until the end of the season. Guerreiro has never hidden that he is a Benfica fan and in the summer this factor could prove decisive for the fortunes of the experienced left-back.

To fix the defense, Juventus is also evaluating Tiago Gabriel, a Portuguese central defender born in 2004 and owned by Lecce, and 22-year-old Bosnian Tarik Muharemovic, a former Sassuolo player also followed by Inter. However, Juve has reserved 50 percent on the future resale of the neroverde central player: in this sense therefore it would have a major advantage over the partenopei and nerazzurri.
