Rayan Ait-Nouri: Juventus linked with Manchester City defender

Rayan Ait-Nouri, the Algerian-French left-back currently at Manchester City, has been linked with a move to Juventus in Serie A.

The 25-year-old joined City from Wolverhampton Wanderers in June 2025 in a transfer worth €36.8m and remains under contract with the Premier League club until 30 June 2030.

Ait-Nouri has made four appearances for City this season, providing three assists across the EFL Cup and Champions League, but has not featured in the Premier League. He started half of his EFL Cup matches and played a limited role in Europe, where he recorded one assist.

The defender’s current market value is listed at €35m, a figure that provides context to any potential move but does not represent a reported offer from Juventus. He was part of the City side that won the FA Cup in 2026, one of two domestic trophies secured by the club last season.

Ait-Nouri previously spent five seasons with Wolves after moving to England from Angers, where he began his senior career. His current position at City, combined with the length of his contract, means any transfer would require an agreement between the clubs rather than a free move.

For now, the Algeria- and France-born defender remains a Manchester City player, with Juventus the club currently linked with a switch to Italy.
