Osimhen joined Galatasaray on a season-long loan from Napoli after his attempted move to the English Premier League was botched, while Tonali has enjoyed a blistering season under Eddie Howe this campaign. In 23 games for Okan Buruk’s side this season, the Napoli loanee has scored 17 goals and provided five assists across all competitions while Tonali is championing Newcastle to a place in the English Premier League top-four alongside Bruno Guimaraes and Joelinton in midfield. As per Italian outlet, Gazzetta dello Sport, Juventus are eyeing double summer swoop for Victor Osimhen and Newcastle United midfielder, Sandro Tonali. After the technical revolution at the Allianz Arena in Turin last year, Juventus Sporting Director, Cristiano Giuntoli, aims to strengthen the squad with a quality addition to each department, and has already started working on his squad planning ahead of a summer overhaul. The old ladies recruited Alberto Costa , Kelly, Renato Veiga and Kolo Muani during the winter transfer window while parting ways with Danilo , Arthur and Fagioli. Between the summer of 2024 and now, Juventus have bought 13 players and sold 14. Giuntoli is very particular about building a young team with an average age of about 25.3, whilst keeping the team salary sustainable. Dusan Vlahovic’s contract with Juventus runs out in the summer of 2026, and with chances of a renewal close to zero, the record Serie A champion have fixed their eyes on Osimhen, and are hopeful they’ll get a discount on the Nigerian’s €75m release clause. In the middle of the park, the Bianconeri dream of Sandro Tonali . The whites and blacks have spent over €120m to sign Thuram, Koopmeiners and Douglas Luiz, but the Brazilian has not lived up to expectations so far, and a return to the Premier League is on the cards, with Aston Villa interested. However, if nothing changes between now and June, Douglas Luiz could be the card to play with Newcastle to lower the fee to get to sign Tonali. Giuntoli’s dream is to reunite with Victor Osimhen having brought him to Naples from LOSC Lille in 2020. However, it’ll be a tough negotiation to have with Napoli president, Aurelien De Laurentiis. Additionally, Osimhen’s stance on his future is currently unknown as the striker has repeatedly mentioned his loan spell with Galatasaray has his full focus. For Tonali, a return to Italy will be a return home, after he was in tears when he realized he’d be leaving AC Milan in 2023.Get Our Sports News First – Join Our WhatsApp Channel Now!
