Juventus want Muharemovic back – Leeds blocks transfer

At Elland Road, where Tarik Muharemovic has played every minute of the ongoing Premier League season, the Italian record champion team Juventus, after a strong start by the 22‑year‑old centre‑back at Leeds United, once again looks to Turin. The club plans to make a serious attempt next summer.

Muharemovic has made a strong start at Leeds United, reigniting Juventus's interest. His performance in the Premier League has already convinced the Turin‑based officials.

According to Football FanCast, Juventus plans to make a new push for Muharemovic in the summer of 2027. The Italian record champion wants to bring the centre‑back back to Turin.

The defender completed his training at Juventus Next Gen, but never featured for the first team. In his youth he did not receive any first‑team appearances. His time in the youth setup remains the only link to the former club.

Leeds paid roughly €39 million for the transfer in the summer. Since then, Muharemovic has played every minute of the Premier League season so far and has contributed a goal and an assist.

Leeds holds on to the centre‑back

A return transfer to Turin is likely to be difficult, as Leeds has the player under contract until 2031. The club is also not under financial pressure to sell the defender.

The player himself is currently making no moves to leave the club. Sassuolo's sporting director had already explained that Leeds was the only club Muharemovic wanted to join in the summer.

Juventus faces a difficult starting position: the club is ready to reach deep into its pockets, but both Leeds and Muharemovic himself show little interest in a move. Thus, the possible return to Turin remains uncertain.
