Juventus rejects Porto loan offer for defender Federico Gatti
Summary

Juventus declined a loan proposal from FC Porto for defender Federico Gatti. The Italian club is open to parting ways with the player as they look to reduce their squad size, but they will only sanction a departure if it includes a clear path to a permanent transfer. While Gatti has not requested a move and prefers to remain in Italy, his future remains subject to market interest. Galatasaray has also registered interest in the defender as they explore options for the current window. Juventus remains in a holding pattern, waiting to see if either club submits a proposal that meets their specific requirements for a permanent agreement. The organization remains committed to streamlining its roster and will only proceed with a deal that aligns with these long-term squad planning objectives.
