Mikel Merino, a 27-year-old player from Real Sociedad, is also on Juventus' radar.

Merino is being considered as a potential reinforcement for Juventus' midfield.

Juventus is interested in Mikel Merino as a potential replacement for Lewis Ferguson, who suffered a serious injury. Merino's physical and technical characteristics are similar to those of Adrien Rabiot, whose contract with Juventus is expiring. Merino has been closely observed by Juventus. His contract includes a release clause of 60 million, but his contract expiration in 2025 makes it possible to attempt a lower figure, around 40/45 million.
