The Bianconeri missed out on UEFA Champions League football last season as they finished sixth in Serie A, having only won one of their final five games of the campaign.

They have chosen to stick with Luciano Spalletti as head coach for 2026-2027, but a major overhaul of the squad is likely as they aim to put themselves in Scudetto contention.

Juventus has not won Serie A since 2019-2020, when Maurizio Sarri was its head coach and Cristiano Ronaldo was its leading scorer with 31 goals.

That was its ninth league title in a row, but since then, its best finish was third in 2024-2025 and it has placed outside the top four on two occasions.

One of the players strongly linked with a move to Turin is Aston Villa's UEFA Europa League-winning goalkeeper Emiliano Martinez, whose hopes of winning a second FIFA World Cup are still alive after Argentina's stunning comeback win over Egypt in the Round of 16.

Carnevali said that Juve is one of several clubs hoping to do a deal for Martinez, saying: "We will have to wait.

"Martinez interests us, but he's also an interesting profile for a lot of other teams.

"There will be lots of opportunities. There are players who are already rated highly and those who we should keep a close eye on."

Juve is also in the market for a new striker after seeing Dusan Vlahovic depart as a free agent, and Carnevali has revealed Atletico Madrid man Sorloth is among its options.

"The doors aren't only open for Sorloth, but also for other players," he said when asked about Juve's attacking targets.

Sorloth scored 20 goals in 54 appearances for Atletico Madrid – only 26 of which were starts – across all competitions last season – not including the FIFA Club World Cup – the joint-most of any player for the club alongside Argentina's Julian Alvarez.

Another option in the forward areas is Kolo Muani, who was previously on loan at Juve from Paris Saint-Germain in 2025, scoring 10 goals in 22 outings.

Since that loan spell, Kolo Muani has also had a temporary stint at Tottenham Hotspur, where he made 41 appearances but only managed five goals as the club narrowly avoided relegation from the Premier League.

Juve is actively working on a deal to bring him back, with Carnevali saying: "For Kolo Muani, the demands have not been lowered, and we have not increased the proposal, but we are working hard on it.

"I wouldn't just focus on him. If there is a big gap [in valuation], we have to make the right assessments. We're trying to do the best thing."
