Juventus signs Alajbegovic, pursues Conceição sale and Reijnders loan

Juventus Kerim Alajbegovic Francisco Conceição Tijjani Reijnders transfer market

Juventus have completed the signing of 18‑year‑old Bosnian winger Kerim Alajbegovic from Bayer Leverkusen. The transfer is valued at roughly €33‑40 million, with the player undergoing his medical at the club’s Continassa training ground.

The club is also close to finalising a permanent deal for French striker Randal Kolo Muani. To fund these arrivals, Juventus are looking to sell Portuguese winger Francisco Conceição for €40‑50 million; both Manchester United and Liverpool have been reported as interested.

Juventus continue to monitor Manchester City midfielder Tijjani Reijnders, exploring a possible loan with an option to buy that could reach €70 million. A loan of Dutch forward Joshua Zirkzee from Manchester United is also being considered. The transfer activity follows Juventus’ failure to qualify for the Champions League, finishing sixth in Serie A, and a UEFA settlement that requires the club to raise additional funds.
