The Bianconeri are now pushing for the acquisition of Atletico Madrid's Alexander Sorloth, who is viewed as the ideal traditional number nine to solve their goalscoring woes. Juventus are currently exploring a potential swap deal involving winger Nico Gonzalez, who is reportedly interested in a move to Spain.
While Joshua Zirkzee of Manchester United remains an alternative option, the club's leadership is prioritizing Sorloth for his proven physical presence in the penalty box. The coming days will be decisive for Juventus as they look to finalize their squad and address the lack of consistent output from their central forwards.
