JUVENTUS’ ATTACKING PLANS AND TEAM SITUATION

Juventus are planning to change their attack this summer. They finished fourth in Serie A this season, 12 points behind Inter. David is set to bring his goal-scoring skills to the club after scoring 24 goals and creating six assists in Ligue 1 last season. Despite considering selling Dusan Vlahovic, the forward has indicated he does not plan to leave the club until his contract expires in 2026, which adds complications.

WHAT’S NEXT FOR JUVENTUS AND DAVID?

After crashing out of the Club World Cup with a 1-0 loss to Real Madrid, Juventus may have a few days off before starting their preparations for their Serie A opener against Parma.
