secondo quanto dichiarato da Pellegatti, aggiungendo che Ibrahimovic e Giroud hanno fatto vincere uno Scudetto
in merito alle considerazioni anagrafiche. Juventus is pursuing Sunderland striker Brian Brobbey, with manager Luciano Spalletti approving the transfer target to strengthen the team’s attacking options, according to reports.
Luciano Spalletti Approves Winter Target
While Spalletti continues working to extract top performances from his current attacking roster, including summer arrivals Nick Woltemade and Randal Kolo Muani whom the manager believes can perform well with time, the Italian coach insists the squad requires another proven goalscorer to handle competing at the highest level. Brobbey has remained on the Bianconeri radar following prior links during the summer transfer window, with club leadership waiting explicitly for managerial authorization before opening formal dialogue with Sunderland.
Sunderland Views Brobbey as Integral to Europa League Campaign
Following the club’s qualification for the Europa League, management views the 24-year-old forward as integral to their campaign and has not established an official asking price. Brobbey remains under contract at the Stadium of Light until June 2029. Transfermarkt values the Dutch international at €30.00m following his September 2025 arrival from Ajax and subsequent return of seven goals and one assist across 31 Premier League appearances last season.
International Pedigree and European Competition
Brian Brobbey’s profile grew significantly following his appearances for the Netherlands national team during the 2026 FIFA World Cup, capturing attention from several major continental sides. Alongside Juventus, Spanish club Atlético Madrid and German outfit VfB Stuttgart are actively monitoring the forward, according to Transferfeed. Premier League interest is also mounting, with Manchester United, Chelsea, Tottenham Hotspur, and Aston Villa reportedly considering potential approaches. Brobbey has earned 14 senior caps and scored three goals for the Netherlands national team.
Juventus Faces Significant Financial Obstacles to Sign Brobbey
Negotiating a deal with Sunderland will present significant obstacles for Juventus executive management. If negotiations eventually open, the English club is expected to command a substantial transfer fee matching Brobbey’s long-term contract status and current market valuation. Juventus must weigh whether a major financial outlay for the Dutch striker aligns with their ongoing squad development under Spalletti.
