Spalletti back in for Benfica player, wants him at Juventus | OneFootball

Benfica could once again undergo major squad changes during the transfer window, with the future of one of the club’s most important players in recent seasons no longer a guaranteed certainty. In Italy, Juventus have resumed assessing the market and still see one of the Eagles’ options as a possibility to strengthen their goalkeeping department.

The player in question is Anatoliy Trubin, the 25-year-old Ukrainian goalkeeper who has once again made it onto the Old Lady’s shortlist. The Turin club are looking for an alternative in goal following Michele Di Gregorio’s departure and, after a move involving Zion Suzuki became less likely, the Italians have returned to assessing other options.

Juventus had already sounded out Benfica’s SAD earlier this summer, but ultimately backed away because of the roughly €30 million demanded by the Lisbon club. In the meantime, Trubin’s situation at the Estádio da Luz has also changed significantly: the Ukraine international has lost his starting spot to Samuel Soares.

Signed from Shakhtar Donetsk for €10 million, the Ukrainian has a contract with Benfica until 2028 and is protected by a €100 million release clause. Even so, with the end of his deal drawing closer and given his current sporting situation, Benfica’s SAD could lower its financial demands.

In the 2025/26 season, playing for Benfica, Anatoliy Trubin — valued at €25 million — made 50 official appearances: 32 in the Liga Portugal Betclic, 14 in the Champions League, two in the Portuguese Cup, one in the League Cup and one in the Super Cup. .
