The future of Gleison Bremer at Juventus isn’t set in stone due to the presence of a release clause and the interest of major clubs, so the management is keeping tabs on two high-profile youngsters, Maxence Lacroix and Ousmane Diomande, in the event they need an important reinforcement at the position, Calciomercato relays.
The Bianconeri will likely cave if a team offers €60/70M for the Brazilian. Manchester United are eyeing him in particular. They can neutralize his exit clause for the upcoming summer, but it de facto sets his valuation.
Juventus would need to combat deep-pocketed competitors if they wanted Lacroix and Diomande to succeed Bremer or simply add to their backline. The Wolfsburg defender is poised to make the leap and has also been linked to Milan in recent months. He has scored thrice in 26 appearances this season. He has been playing in the Bundesliga since 2020, when he was signed from Sochaux for €5M. His contract expires in 2025, which keeps his price tag in check.
The Sporting CP star would be more expensive as he’s three years younger and has a long-term deal. The Premier League powerhouses are after him, and his price tag is around €40M.
Our Take on Juventus, Bremer, Lacroix, and Diomande
It’s more likely than not that they’ll be able to keep their ace for at least one more campaign. Otherwise, they probably won’t splurge excessively for a replacement but look for a cost-effective signing, as Cristiano Giuntoli has done so many times at Napoli.
