Juventus Plans a Swap Deal with Newcastle
According to "Football Italy", Juventus intends to enter negotiations with Newcastle United to sign Italian star Sandro Tonali during the summer transfer window of 2025, through a swap deal that includes one of its players along with a financial compensation.
The site reports that Tonali is a primary target for the Old Lady this summer, but the high financial value of the player, estimated at around 70 to 80 million euros, poses a barrier to completing the deal, given the current financial situation of the club.
To overcome this obstacle, Juventus is considering offering a player from its squad to reduce the value of the deal, with names like Douglas Luiz and Dusan Vlahovic emerging as potential options.
Douglas Luiz, the former Aston Villa player, has struggled with recurring injuries this season and has not shown his usual level, despite joining for 50 million euros, while Vlahovic, the team's top scorer this season, has refused to extend his contract which expires in June 2026, prompting Juventus management to consider selling him to avoid losing him for free.
