Serie A powerhouse Juventus is reportedly considering selling young midfielder Nicolò Fagioli during the January transfer window to finance their defensive reinforcements, particularly targeting PSG’s Milan Škriniar.
According to La Gazzetta dello Sport, Juventus values Fagioli at around €25 million, a sum that could help secure their winter transfer targets. As a youth product of the club, his sale would generate a substantial capital gain for the Bianconeri, aiding their financial restructuring efforts.
The Turin-based club faces a defensive crisis following injuries to key players like Gleison Bremer. Milan Škriniar, a former Inter Milan standout now at PSG, has emerged as the primary target. While Škriniar is reportedly open to a loan move, PSG is adamant about a permanent transfer, complicating Juventus’ pursuit.
PSG has shown interest in Fagioli, which could pave the way for a straightforward transfer or a potential swap deal involving Škriniar. However, no formal negotiations have begun, leaving the situation fluid.
The sale of Fagioli, while financially beneficial, could come at a cost to Juventus’ midfield depth. Balancing immediate squad needs with long-term planning will be critical for the club’s management as they navigate the January market.
