Jhon Lucumí Attracts Juventus Interest With €28 Million Clause

Juventus has made initial soundings for jhon lucumí while the Colombia defender prepares for the World Cup. The move comes with his future at Bologna drawing fresh attention, and it centers on a release clause set at about 28 million euros.

Juventus and Bologna

Juventus has been linked with Lucumí in Italian market reports and has started preliminary approaches to learn about his contract situation. He is under contract until mid-2027, which gives Bologna leverage before any serious negotiation begins.

Some analysts think Juventus would try to lower the cost through direct talks with Bologna. That would fit the club’s need to strengthen a defense that needs renovation and experience, while keeping the price below the clause.

Lucumí at Colombia

Lucumí’s focus is still on Colombia. The central defender is preparing to face Uzbekistan, the Democratic Republic of the Congo, and Portugal, and his World Cup work is part of what is drawing outside attention.

He is 27, plays as a central defender, and has become an important player for Bologna. Interest has not stayed in Italy, either, with Bournemouth, Sunderland, Tottenham, Roma, and Atlético de Madrid all appearing in market reports tied to him.

That wider list leaves Juventus in a crowded race, but the club’s opening move is clear: learn the contract terms first, then judge whether Bologna can be engaged below the 28 million euro figure. For Lucumí, the next stretch is simpler — Colombia comes first, and three World Cup opponents are already waiting.
