Juventus have announced yet another capital increase of up to €250M, to be activated in due course. They were in the red by €66M in the last session. The stakeholders will have to pour more money into the club to keep the debts in check and finance the transfer market, La Gazzetta dello Sport relays.

Exor will cover 65 percent of the sum, while the rest will come from the market. Their board of directors approved the measure on Tuesday, in Giovanni Carnevali’s formal debut as CEO. The cash influx won’t happen immediately but will eventually be needed to make the numbers work.

According to Calciomercato, Juventus will have about €100M net to spend over the next couple of windows. If they aren’t close enough to the top-four, they’ll be active during the winter already.

Luciano Spalletti would like a prolific striker to keep using a two-man frontline consistently. Randal Kolo Muani and Nick Woltemade have fared better together, but they have combined for just two Serie A goals.

The Bianconeri will keep a close eye on Benjamin Sesko and Folarin Balogun to see whether they could be on the move. They have also shortlisted Sunderland’s Brian Brobbey. Instead, Antonio Raimondo just suffered a serious ankle injury that could sideline him until January. According to Sky Deutschland (via OneFootball), they have set their sights on Bundesliga’s revelation Younes Ebnoutalib, who has bagged eight goals in the first ten matches.

Our Take on Juventus

They have problems in several roles, but a goal poacher can mask a lot of flaws. They’ll have options if they are willing to pay up, but they’d surely prefer to see Kolo Muani hit his stride, since they splurged to get him.
