Juventus are exploring cheaper striker targets between €25m–€35m, including Modica, Lucca, Krstovic, and Delap, amid uncertainty over Vlahovic and Kolo Muani.
Though previously linked with Osimhen, Lookman, and Højlund, Juventus now prefer budget-friendly options to restructure their forward line for next season.
Lorenzo Lucca (Udinese Calcio)
Summer 2025
Manchester United have shortlisted Italian striker Lorenzo Lucca—dubbed the “new Peter Crouch”—as a key transfer target in their summer rebuild. The 24-year-old has netted 18 goals across two seasons and earned three Italy caps this term
Lucca’s journey from Serie C with Palermo to Serie A regular at Udinese has impressed United scouts, with his physical presence and aerial ability fitting manager Ruben Amorim’s profile for a new frontman. Valued at £25 million, Lucca is viewed as a cost-effective solution to bolster United’s attacking depth.
