Juventus are set for a very busy summer transfer market.

After a third disastrous season in a row under Max Allegri, the experienced coach is likely to be let go and replaced by a new manager.

Juventus will also revolutionise areas of their team and playing squad, and will sign many more than just five players.

But here are five players Juventus could sign this summer…

Teun Koopmeiners (Atalanta)

The department of the field where Juventus will do most work this summer is the midfield.

Juventus will sign at least two but perhaps as many as three central midfielders, with Adrien Rabiot set to leave, Paul Pogba banned, Carlos Alcaraz returning to Southampton, and possibly other exits.

The dream target is Atalanta’s Teun Koopmeiners, who has established himself as one of the best central midfielders in Serie A over recent years.

Koopmeiners has publicly stated he desires to leave this summer, but he will not come cheap at over €50 million and that could make a deal tricky given the interest of top Premier League clubs.

Ederson (Atalanta)

Given the cost of Koopmeiners, it is very possible that Juventus will target cheaper options in midfield.

One player they do like is Bologna’s Lewis Ferguson. The Scotsman has been one of the highest scoring midfielders in Serie A over the past two seasons. However, his recent serious injury means that the Bianconeri may now park that idea for the time being.

Instead they could return for Atalanta star Ederson, who will be slightly cheaper than Koopmeiners but no less impressive.

Ederson is also wanted by big Premier League teams.

Mason Greenwood (Man Utd)

Juventus are planning to switch to a 4-3-3 or 4-2-3-1 formation next season, and so are buying players for this new system.

The Bianconeri were in advanced talks to complete the free transfer signing of Felipe Anderson.

The Lazio winger, however, opted to return to Brazil with Palmeiras, so Juventus are looking at other targets now.

Mason Greenwood will be allowed to leave Man Utd this summer after his legal problems and Juventus could look at him if the price is right.

Albert Gudmundsson (Genoa)

Juventus will sell at least one forward this summer, possibly two, with Moise Kean and Arek Milik the two most likely players to leave.

The Bianconeri will certainly sign at least one attacker in addition to Felipe Anderson, and Albert Gudmundsson is one of the names they are considering.

The Iceland star can play in a two man attack, as winger or an attacking midfielder, so he fits the bill in terms of versatility.

Genoa are asking for around €30 million, but there is strong interest from rivals Inter, as well as top Premier League clubs.

Riccardo Calafiori (Bologna)

Juventus will sign a left-footed centre back this summer, and their top target is Bologna’s Riccardo Calafiori.

Juventus have been in negotiations for Calafiori for some time, and it is a deal that could be done if the price is right.

Calafiori has been on of the best centre backs in Serie A this season and played a key role in Bologna being on the verge of a historic qualification for the Champions League.

The young defender is also wanted by Tottenham, but Juventus are favourites.
