Juventus could be looking to bolster their No. 9 options in 2025 to secure consistent goal-scoring from the position. Among the names making the rounds in transfer rumors is a promising striker who has yet to fully realize his potential.

Dušan Vlahović has delivered for the Bianconeri, with nine goals and one assist in 16 appearances across all competitions this season. However, his contract expires in 2026, and with no extension in place, his future at the club remains up in the air.

While Vlahović could still commit to a long-term stay in Turin, Juventus might explore bringing in another striker to spark competition. This move could push the Serbian to maintain top form while helping the team avoid any scoring droughts in Serie A.

What's the latest on Evan Ferguson?

Corriere dello Sport has reported that Evan Ferguson could be a key target for the January transfer window. The Irish forward has struggled for regular minutes at Brighton & Hove Albion this season, recording just 258 minutes in nine appearances across all competitions.

Moreover, GIVE ME SPORT reports that Arsenal are unlikely to join the race for Ferguson, despite Premier League rivals Brighton & Hove Albion reportedly considering a loan move for the striker in the upcoming January transfer window.

With only one goal so far, could Juventus capitalize on the opportunity to secure a promising talent at a bargain price as he continues to adapt to first-team football?

The 20-year-old might be struggling this season, but he'd still cost Juventus a good amount of money as Transfermarkt puts the player's transfer value at €45 million.
