Sky: Juventus tracking Hungarian youngster likened to Liverpool star

Juventus are reportedly following young Ferencvaros midfielder Alex Toth, who is expected to move to bigger things next summer.

The Bianconeri will be keen to bolster their midfield ranks next year, as this department is considered by many to be the club’s ultimate Achilles Heel.

Curiously, former Juventus Football Director Cristiano Giuntoli had spent circa €130 million on new midfielders in the summer of 2024, but only Khephren Thuram’s arrival paid dividends.

On the contrary, Douglas Luiz returned to the Premier League after a dreadful year in Turin, while Teun Koopmeiners failed to deliver the goods in midfield, and is surprisingly trying to recreate himself as a defender under Luciano Spalletti.

Therefore, Damien Comolli is expected to address this issue in 2026. The Juventus CEO will be on the lookout for inviting opportunities in January, but most observers believe that the management could hold out for bigger fish in the summer.

In recent weeks, the Bianconeri have been linked with various profiles, but the picture remains largely vague.

Interestingly, Sky Sport DE journalist Florian Plettenberg has now added a new name to the shortlist, revealing that Juventus are interested in Toth.
