Juventus continues to look for a new defender after losing Gleison Bremer for the rest of the season. Bremer is too crucial for the Bianconeri not to replace, and the club is already working on a list of potential defensive additions for the January transfer window.
According to Tuttomercatoweb, Juventus has been watching Empoli’s Ardian Ismajli for some time. The Bianconeri are fully aware of his contract predicament; his present term with Empoli expires at the end of the season, and he is unlikely to renew it.
This presents an opportunity for Juventus to make an offer in January to convince Empoli to sell, rather than risk losing the player for free at the end of the campaign. At 28 years old, Ismajli is an experienced defender, and he may not need much time to adapt to his new environment and start contributing to the team immediately.
Juve FC Says
We need a defender in January because we look short at the back already and if one more player in that position gets injured, we could be in big trouble.
Ismajli looks like a decent option, and we trust him to do well if the club picks him as the next defender to sign.
