Juventus interested in signing German-Nigerian midfielder Felix Nmecha to bolster squad

Italian Serie A giants Juventus are reportedly interested in signing German midfielder of Nigerian descent Felix Nmecha.

According to Italian outlet Calciomercato, the Serie A giants have identified the Borussia Dortmund star as a prime target as they prepare for a major squad overhaul following recent managerial changes.

The Turin club recently dismissed Igor Tudor after just seven months in charge, with former Italy national team coach Luciano Spalletti expected to take over. Juventus are now keen to rejuvenate their midfield, which has been identified as a weak link in recent campaigns.

Nmecha, 25, has impressed with his technical ability and versatility in Dortmund’s midfield. His standout display in the thrilling 4-4 Champions League draw, where he netted the temporary 2-1 lead, reportedly caught the attention of Juventus scouts.

However, securing his signature will not be easy. Nmecha is under contract with Borussia Dortmund until 2028, and the German club is reluctant to part ways with one of its key players.

Any potential deal is expected to cost Juventus not less than €50 million.
