Although Inter Milan are keen to sign Tarik Muharemovic, Juventus are preparing to bring the defender back from Sassuolo this summer by activating the buy-back clause included in his contract.
The Bosnian defender came through Juventus’ youth system before being sold from the Next Gen side to Sassuolo in the summer of 2024, when the Neroverdi were still competing in Serie B. His development since then has significantly raised his profile across Italian football.
His strong performances helped Sassuolo secure an immediate return to Serie A, and he continued to impress during the 2025/26 campaign in the top flight, establishing himself as one of the club’s most reliable defensive options.
Muharemovic also contributed to Bosnia’s success on the international stage, playing an important role as Bosnia eliminated Italy in the World Cup qualifying play-offs, further increasing interest in his services from top European clubs.
Juventus Move To Block Inter Interest
-------------------------------------
Inter Milan have reportedly been working on a potential move for the defender over recent months, with discussions taking place involving both the player and Sassuolo as they explored a possible transfer.
However, as reported by [Il Bianconero](https://www.ilbianconero.com/liste/juventus-in-programma-contatti-con-gli-agenti-di-muharemovic-per-riportarlo-a-torino/blt8b9d6ad537774d23), Juventus are now prepared to move quickly to derail Inter’s plans by activating their buy-back option and bringing Muharemovic back to Turin.
The Bianconeri are considering changes in defence, with the possibility of senior departures [such as Gleison Bremer being evaluated](https://talkjuve.com/2026/06/27/tottenham-among-the-clubs-eyeing-juventus-star/) in order to raise funds and rebalance the squad ahead of the new season.
Return To Turin On The Cards
----------------------------
Muharemovic is believed to be open to a return to Juventus and is ready to compete for a place in the first team, confident that his development at Sassuolo has prepared him for the next step in his career.
Juventus see him as a long-term defensive option who could strengthen their squad depth while also providing future stability in a position that may change during the transfer window.
