Juventus Seeks Defender and Sends "Signals" to former Inter star

Juventus has identified the priority position for reinforcement in the upcoming winter transfer window and has begun contacting their first candidate.

Details: Injuries to Gleison Bremer and Juan Cuadrado have limited Thiago Motta’s defensive options, so strengthening the defense will be Juventus' priority in January.

Juventus cannot spend heavily in the winter transfer market, so they are looking for short-term solutions that can be implemented immediately. Paris Saint-Germain player and former Inter Milan star Milan Škriniar is at the top of their wishlist.

La Gazzetta dello Sport suggests that Juventus director Cristiano Giuntoli is sending Škriniar a "subtle signal," implying that the club is looking for someone ready to help them overcome their injury crisis.

The former Inter defender is seen as the ideal short-term solution to reinforce Motta’s squad, as he already has significant Serie A experience and may be tempted by the prospect of increasing his playing time in a season where he has only featured in four Ligue 1 matches.

Reminder: Škriniar’s career at PSG has not gone as planned. This season, the 29-year-old Slovak has played only 4 matches in all competitions.

Earlier reports suggested that Juventus is leading the race for the loan of Manchester United forward.
