Juventus has set its sights on RB Salzburg’s talented striker Karim Konaté as they prepare for potential changes to their attacking lineup.
The 20-year-old Ivorian, who is under contract with the Austrian club until 2028, has garnered attention with impressive performances, scoring eight goals and providing two assists in 17 matches across all competitions this season.
The Turin-based club sees Konaté as a viable replacement for Dusan Vlahovic, should the Serbian striker depart.
Konaté is reportedly valued at €25 million, making him an appealing target for the reigning Serie A champions.
Konaté’s inclusion as a finalist for the CAF Awards 2024 for Best Men’s Player of the Year has further highlighted his rising stature in European football.
Despite earning a modest annual salary of €361,920, his potential is seen as a strong investment for Juventus as they look to strengthen their attacking options.
RB Salzburg, meanwhile, continues its domestic campaign with an upcoming clash against Hartberg, where Konaté is expected to play a key role.
As the transfer market looms, speculation over Konaté’s future will remain a hot topic.
