Juventus seek lift at Lecce as transfer talk swirls
Juventus sit on 65 points, one ahead of Roma, and finish against bottom-half sides Lecce, Fiorentina and Torino. Luciano Spalletti’s team are optimistic but must avoid slips to clinch Champions League qualification.
Juventus value Francisco Conceição at around €70m and are reluctant to sell. Liverpool are linked, but Juventus plan to keep him unless that valuation is met.
Angelo Di Livio urges Juventus to sign Bernardo Silva from Manchester City, citing his leadership and personality, saying he would boost a squad lacking charismatic players.
Luciano Spalletti backs Lois Openda amid criticism, calling him ‘deadly’ and praising his work, but says selections suit team needs. There is speculation Juventus could consider a sale if a suitable offer arrives.
Juventus visit Lecce needing a response after drawing Verona. With Roma closing in, three points are vital. Lecce, fighting relegation, drew in Turin earlier, so Juventus must show discipline and edge.
