Juventus has expressed interest in acquiring Eljif Elmas from RB Leipzig during this summer transfer window. Elmas’ agent is actively proposing the midfielder to the Serie A side after Napoli opted not to exercise their purchase option. Leipzig has set a valuation of approximately €15 million for Elmas, who joined the club in January 2024 for €24 million. Previous negotiations with Napoli for a lower price were not successful, allowing Juventus to initiate discussions. Competition for Elmas includes Aston Villa, although they are currently focusing on other priorities. The talks between Juventus and Leipzig are expected to escalate once Juventus secures necessary funds for summer spending.
