Rayan Cherki, who is currently playing for Lyon and is a standout player for the French Under-21 national team, has attracted interest from several clubs. In previous observations, both Juventus and Lazio have shown interest in him. While the primary focus has been on his potential eligibility to play for the Italian national team, his potential for a club transfer remains substantial. The FIGC has reportedly intensified their efforts to persuade him to play for Italy, emphasizing his Italian heritage.

There was a conversation between Cherki's entourage and Juventus, but it did not progress well.
