Juventus Rebuilds Attack on Deadline Day as Donnarumma Seals Move to Manchester City

Analysts say the late moves expand Igor Tudor’s attacking options, prompting rivals to rethink plans for the title chase.

Overview

  • Juventus confirmed Loïs Openda on loan from RB Leipzig through June 2026 for about €3.3–4 million with an agreed purchase structure, and completed Edon Zhegrova’s permanent signing from Lille for roughly €14.3 million plus add-ons.
  • Gianluigi Donnarumma left PSG for Manchester City in a deal worth €28 million plus bonuses, signed a five-year contract and has rejoined Italy’s training camp at Coverciano.
  • Igor Tudor gains speed and width with Openda and Zhegrova, broadening formations and in-game options, while analysts still flag questions on the right flank and midfield balance.
  • Inter sold Benjamin Pavard and added Manuel Akanji late in the window, a move portrayed by Italian media as opportunistic and skewing older in defense.
  • Across Europe, Liverpool’s spending approached a record €490 million, Milan executed 29 transactions, and Udinese secured Nicolò Zaniolo on loan with an option through June 2026.
