Juventus aimed a cheeky jibe at Napoli hotshot Victor Osimhen by using video footage of defender Gleison Bremer thwarting him to announce their Brazilian star’s contract extension on Wednesday.
The Bianconeri revealed centre-back Bremer had penned fresh terms until 2027 courtesy of a social media post depicting his standout performances while emptying his pockets.
Phone footage showed the 25-year-old dominating duels with Osimhen and AC Milan’s Rafael Leao to illustrate Bremer’s immense value this term.
It hinted at a response after Osimhen previously goaded Juventus fans by putting his fingers in his ears when scoring in Napoli’s 5-1 Serie A demolition back in January.
Now Serie A’s runaway leaders, that emphatic victory helped Luciano Spalletti’s dazzling side open up a 12-point advantage over third-placed Juve.
And with Nigerian hotshot Osimhen plundering 12 goals in 14 league outings on their charge towards the Scudetto, Bremer’s battles with the 24-year-old could yet determine this season’s destination.
By tying down the uncompromising ex-Torino man until 2027, Juve have secured a cornerstone to construct future challenges while revelling in his previousreplication of their talismanic striker.
