Juventus eyes midfield exits and targets, from Koopmeiners to Koné

Juventus is assessing the possible sale of several midfielders as it prepares for the next season. Dutch midfielder Teun Koopmeiners is valued at around €30 million, while French‑born Khéphren Thuram has attracted interest from English and Turkish clubs and could bring a €20‑25 million profit. Fabio Miretti is also listed among potential departures if a €15 million offer materialises.

At the same time the club is scouting affordable reinforcements. The Ivory Coast midfielder Franck Kessié, currently earning about €14 million a season in Saudi Arabia, could be signed for roughly €5.5 million plus bonuses. German international Leon Goretzka is expected to become available on a free transfer. Juventus is also negotiating with Argentine goalkeeper Emiliano Martínez on reduced wages and monitoring other options such as Randal Kolo Muani and Alexander Sorloth.

A standout candidate is Canadian midfielder Ismaël Koné of Sassuolo. At 21 years old he logged 34 Serie A starts, 6 goals and 2,691 minutes in the 2025‑26 season, showing strength, athleticism and technical ability. Juventus views him as a cost‑effective way to boost midfield quality while maintaining financial balance.
