Juventus monitoring young Senegalese winger Assane Diao
Italian club Juventus FC are reportedly considering a move for Senegalese winger Assane Diao as they look to strengthen their attacking options ahead of the next summer transfer window.
The 20-year-old currently plays for Como 1907, where he has begun to draw attention despite a limited number of appearances this season.
According to the Italian outlet Calciomercato, Juventus have been closely following the progress of the young winger and are assessing whether his profile could fit into the club’s long-term plans.
Diao is considered one of the emerging talents at Como, although his playing time during the current campaign has been affected by periods of unavailability due to injury.
As a result, he has featured in ten matches across all competitions so far this season.
Despite the interruptions, his performances have been enough to attract the interest of the Turin-based club, which has a reputation for closely monitoring promising young players across European leagues.
Juventus’ interest reflects the club’s ongoing strategy of identifying developing talents who could strengthen the squad in future seasons.
Scouts and management have reportedly been impressed by Diao’s potential and his ability to operate in attacking positions on the wing.
The Senegalese player remains under contract with Como until June 2029, tying him to the club for several more years.
According to the football statistics platform Transfermarkt, his current estimated market value stands at around €30m.
While there has been no official confirmation of negotiations between the two clubs, the interest highlights how closely Juventus are monitoring the situation of the young attacker.
Meanwhile, Juventus are preparing for their upcoming match in the Serie A, where they will face US Sassuolo in the 30th round of the league.
As the season continues, attention may increasingly turn to the summer transfer market, where emerging players such as Assane Diao could become targets for some of Europe’s leading clubs seeking to strengthen their squads
