Juventus Eyeing Chelsea’s Renato Veiga as Potential Defensive Reinforcement

According to transfer expert Fabrizio Romano, Juventus has added Chelsea defender Renato Veiga to their list of potential transfer targets. The Italian club is actively seeking to bolster their defensive lineup after losing both Gleison Bremer and Juan Cabal to serious knee injuries for the remainder of the season.

With their primary targets like Barcelona’s Ronald Araujo and AC Milan’s Fikayo Tomori becoming increasingly difficult to acquire, Juventus is now exploring alternative options. The 21-year-old Veiga, who can play both as a central defender and left-back, has emerged as an attractive prospect for the Bianconeri.

Veiga’s versatility and potential have not gone unnoticed, with several other European clubs also expressing interest. Napoli, Borussia Dortmund, Olympique Marseille, VfB Stuttgart, and Wolverhampton Wanderers are all reportedly monitoring the young Portuguese defender’s situation.

Having already earned three caps for the Portuguese national team, Veiga joined Chelsea from FC Basel just six months ago for a fee of €14 million. His rapid rise and adaptability make him an enticing option for Juventus as they look to reinforce their defense for the upcoming challenges.

As the transfer window progresses, it remains to be seen whether Juventus will make a formal approach for Veiga or explore other alternatives to address their defensive needs.
