Juventus tipped to sign Paris Saint-Germain centre-back Milan Skriniar
Juventus have identified Milan Škriniar as their top transfer target for the upcoming window, according to reports from La Gazzetta dello Sport.
The 29-year-old defender, currently with Paris Saint-Germain, has struggled to find consistent playing time this season, making him a prime candidate for a move back to Serie A.
Škriniar joined PSG on a free transfer in the summer of 2023, a move that was orchestrated prior to Luis Enrique’s appointment as the club’s manager. While Škriniar initially featured in the team’s plans, it has become clear that he is not among Enrique’s most trusted players.
This season, the Slovakian centre-back has started only two matches in Ligue 1, logging a mere 201 minutes on the pitch. Such limited playing time has left Škriniar considering his options, especially as he looks to regain a prominent role in a competitive squad.
Despite expressing a desire to remain with PSG during the summer, it seems the situation has shifted as he finds himself increasingly sidelined.
Juventus has taken note of this and is ready to offer Škriniar a route out of Paris in January. The Serie A side is particularly interested in bringing him on board to provide depth in defense, especially with the injury concerns surrounding Gleison Bremer, who is currently sidelined.
Škriniar’s experience and skill make him an appealing option for Juventus. Having played 74 games for the Slovakian national team and scoring three goals, he has demonstrated both defensive solidity and an ability to contribute offensively. His past performances in Serie A, particularly during his time with Inter Milan, have showcased his capability to perform at the highest level.

Juventus are keen to strengthen their defense, and Škriniar would bring not only experience but also a winning mentality to the squad. His familiarity with Serie A could facilitate a smoother transition compared to other international signings. As Juventus navigates the complexities of the transfer market, securing a player of Škriniar’s caliber would significantly bolster their backline.
As the January transfer window approaches, the situation surrounding Milan Škriniar at PSG will be closely monitored by fans and analysts alike. If Juventus can finalize a deal, it could mark a pivotal moment for both the club and the player, allowing Škriniar to reignite his career in a familiar setting while providing Juventus with the defensive reinforcement they desperately need.
Milan Škriniar’s potential move to Juventus represents an exciting opportunity for both parties. For Juventus, he offers an immediate solution to their defensive issues; for Škriniar, a chance to reclaim his status as a key player in a top European league. As discussions continue, all eyes will be on this developing story in the lead-up to January.
