Juventus monitors Brentford defender Michael Kayode for potential signing
Summary

Juventus is interested in Brentford defender Michael Kayode as it seeks to enhance its squad with Italian talent. Kayode, 21, previously progressed through Juventus’ youth ranks and has performed well in the Premier League, contributing defensively and offensively. His performances have caught the attention of Juventus executives who aim to build a stronger Italian core, inspired by a model used by Paris Saint-Germain. Any move to bring Kayode back to Italy could be complicated by Brentford's high asking price. Juventus is also tracking several other Italian players, including Lorenzo Palmisani and Cher Ndour.
