Juventus open to sell highly rated prospect despite recent contract extension

Juventus are reportedly open to letting Nicolo Savona leave, as confirmed by journalist Matteo Moretto during an appearance on Fabrizio Romano’s YouTube channel.

According to Moretto, verbal offers from Premier League clubs have already arrived for the 22-year-old defender, although no official bids have been submitted yet.

Juventus are already exploring possible replacements, and Savona’s exit is described as a real and concrete possibility. Further developments are expected in the coming days.

Savona, born on March 19, 2003, is a product of Juventus’s youth system. He has progressed from Juventus Next Gen into the first team, making 28 Serie A appearances in the 2024–25 season, scoring 2 goals.

Across all competitions, he featured in 40 matches, registering two goals and one assist. In UEFA Champions League play, he appeared seven times logging 427 minutes.

Despite extending his contract in June 2025 until either 2029 or 2030, Juventus are willing to sell Savona if the right offer arrives.

Several Premier League clubs have shown strong interest. Newcastle, in particular, are said to be pushing to reach an agreement with Juventus, possibly as part of a contingency plan in case of changes within their current defensive lineup.

Savona is currently recovering from an ankle sprain sustained during the FIFA Club World Cup and is expected to be sidelined until mid-September.
