Juventus Insider: Agent of Feyenoord’s Hancko in Turin for Talks, Amid Transfer Interest
In a significant development in the transfer market, the agent of Feyenoord defender David Hancko was present at the Allianz Stadium during Juventus’s Champions League encounter against Manchester City.
This visit underscores Juventus’s intent to bolster their defensive options with the Slovakian international.
According to transfer market insider Nicolò Schira, Hancko’s agent was in Turin not only to watch the match but also to engage in negotiations with Juventus officials.

The interest from Juventus is clear, with talks suggesting a potential move for Hancko.
For Hancko, who has expressed his willingness to join Juventus, a contract worth €2.5 million per year, inclusive of bonuses, has been prepared.
This contract would extend until 2029, indicating a long-term commitment from Juventus should the transfer materialize.
The strategy for Juventus appears to be a loan deal with an obligation to buy at the end of the term. This approach would allow Juventus to evaluate Hancko in Serie A before making a full financial commitment.
Feyenoord, however, has set a valuation of between €35 to €40 million for their defender, reflecting his importance and performances in the Eredivisie and European competitions.
David Hancko, at just 25 years old, has already established himself as a reliable defender, known for his composure on the ball, good positioning, and aerial ability.
This potential transfer could be a huge boost for Juventus after losing out Gleison Bremer and Juan Cabal who are out for the rest of the season due to ACL injury they suffered early this season.
