Juventus have announced the signing of English-Nigerian teenager Justin Oboavwoduo, who has completed a deadline-day move from Manchester City.
The young centre-forward joined Man City’s academy at a tender age. In 2022, he was promoted to the U18 side, and a year later, he became a member of the club’s second team (Manchester City U21).
This season, he made six appearances in the Premier League 2, scoring five goals and delivering a couple of assists. Therefore, Juventus saw enough and decided to poach his services.
As reported on Sunday, the Bianconeri struck an agreement with the 19-year-old player and his entourage, as well as the Cityzens, who agreed to relinquish the player’s services.

After undergoing his medical, Oboavwoduo put pen to paper on Monday, as confirmed by the club’s official website.
