Brahim Diaz is one of the players Juventus want to add to their squad in the next few weeks, and they are using the World Cup as an opportunity to convince him to join them.
The Old Lady have several players on their shopping list and are at the tournament to discuss potential moves and scout some of their targets further as they prepare for next season.
Failing to qualify for the Champions League has made them less attractive, but Juve remain one of the biggest clubs in the world and will always appeal to many players.
Juventus Transfer Plans at the Tournament
-----------------------------------------
They are confident that missing out on Champions League football will not ruin their chances of signing top stars, which explains why they have become keen on adding Diaz to their squad.
Juventus are using the tournament to hold discussions and assess possible targets, with Diaz among the names they are actively monitoring.
Diaz Situation at Real Madrid
-----------------------------
He is one of the players being tipped to struggle for game time at Madrid now that Jose Mourinho is their manager, and the attacker would not want to spend the season on the bench.
According to [Calciomercato](https://www.gazzetta.it/Calcio/Calciomercato/Juventus/16-06-2026/juventus-la-missione-mondiale-per-carnevali.shtml), Juventus have sent a delegation to the World Cup to speak with Diaz and convince him to agree to join them after the competition.
Diaz will be focused on helping his country perform well at the tournament, but Juve are keen to ensure that he gives them his word so they can move forward with club-to-club talks.
His situation at Madrid means Juventus believe there is a realistic opportunity to open negotiations, although any final decision will depend on discussions between all parties involved following the tournament.
Even so, Juventus remain attentive to his progress and continue to monitor developments closely as they plan their next steps in the transfer market.
