Chelsea will not sign Alajbegovic, who agrees to join Juventus

Kerim Alajbegovic has reportedly reached an agreement to join Juventus, turning down Chelsea's interest. The Blues sought to add the Bayer Leverkusen winger this summer but could not provide a clear path for playing time. Alajbegovic, 18, had a strong season in the Austrian Bundesliga and showcased his talent during the 2026 World Cup. Chelsea has been focusing on their existing young talents, making the signing of Alajbegovic less crucial for their current squad depth.
