Juventus have added Daniele Ghilardi to their list of transfer targets as the Bianconeri look to strengthen their defence with another promising young player during the current transfer window.
The centre back has emerged as one of the standout young defenders in Serie A in recent months and has continued to develop under Gian Piero Gasperini. His consistent performances have attracted attention from several clubs, with Juventus among those monitoring his progress closely.
Juventus Step Up Interest
-------------------------
Gasperini would like to keep Ghilardi in his squad in Rome, but Juventus believe the defender has the qualities to become an important part of their long-term plans.
The Bianconeri have been scouting the defender over the past few weeks and view him as one of the best defensive options available in the current market. His development and potential have impressed the club’s recruitment team as they continue searching for reinforcements.
According to [TuttoJuve](https://www.tuttojuve.com/calciomercato/juve-gatti-uscita-pensa-possibile-scambio-difensivo-roma-787435), Juventus are even considering including Federico Gatti as part of a deal in an attempt to convince Roma to part with Ghilardi.
Roma Reluctant to Sell
----------------------
Despite Juventus’ interest, Roma are not open to allowing the defender to leave this summer. The club regard Ghilardi as one of the most important members of the squad and are determined to retain his services.
The report suggests Roma believe the young defender has greater potential than Gatti, making them unwilling to accept an exchange involving the Juventus centre-back.
Juventus remain interested in completing the transfer, but negotiations are expected to be challenging given Roma’s current position. Unless the situation changes, the Bianconeri may need to consider alternative defensive targets before the transfer window closes.
For now, Ghilardi remains a player highly valued by his current club, while Juventus continue to monitor developments in the hope that an opportunity to secure his signature could emerge later in the transfer window.
