Man Utd Join Liverpool in Pursuit of Juventus’ Defensive Rock

Bremer’s growing reputation

Manchester United have entered the race alongside Liverpool and Chelsea for Juventus star Gleison Bremer, according to TeamTalk’s Dean Jones. The Brazilian has become one of Serie A’s most reliable defenders, playing the majority of minutes of Juventus’ season so far and establishing himself as a leader at the back.

Juventus remain determined to keep Bremer, who is under contract until 2029, but his performances and statistics make him hard to ignore for Premier League clubs. Sources told TeamTalk: “Juventus are particularly wary of 2026 becoming ‘a flashpoint year’ and will work hard to ensure Bremer’s situation is secure before then.”

Why Premier League giants are circling

Liverpool, United, and Chelsea have all tracked Bremer in recent months, with the lure of the Premier League potentially proving decisive. “The lure of a move to England could turn his head – particularly with the chance to elevate both his career and financial standing,” reported Jones.

Juventus’ defensive cornerstone

For Juventus, losing Bremer would be a major blow. The club’s hierarchy consider him irreplaceable in their quest to return to the top of Italian football. His blend of aerial dominance and calm distribution has been vital, as shown in Juve’s promising start to the campaign.

With three Serie A wins out of three and a 4-4 Champions League thriller against Borussia Dortmund, Bremer’s role has been fundamental to their progress.

Transfer battle on the horizon

Interest is expected to intensify in the coming seasons, particularly as 2026 approaches. As Rudy Galetti highlighted earlier this month, Liverpool even came close to securing Bremer last summer. For now, Juventus will fight to keep him, but the prospect of a Premier League tug-of-war is looming large.

From a Manchester United supporter’s perspective, the links to Gleison Bremer will be viewed with intrigue and optimism. The club have been searching for a long-term defensive leader to take the reigns of the backline. Bremer’s durability – playing majority of the minutes this season – and his near 50% clean sheet rate in Turin make him an appealing option.

Fans will also recognise how United’s back line has often struggled for consistency. Bremer’s presence could bring both stability and authority, two qualities desperately needed if United are to close the gap on Manchester City and Arsenal. The fact Liverpool are also interested will only heighten supporter demand. No United fan wants to see a player of Bremer’s calibre end up at Anfield.

However, concerns will exist. With Bremer contracted until 2029, Juventus will demand a huge transfer fee. United supporters may worry that their club will either overpay or miss out due to financial restrictions.

Still, the idea of pairing Bremer with Martínez and De Ligt or Yoro could excite the Old Trafford faithful.
