As part of their search for a new defender, Atalanta is competing for Juventus's 25-year-old Colombian defender, Juan Cabal. Cabal, who can play as a center-back and left-back, was brought to Juventus from Hellas Verona by Giuntoli and has 3 caps for his country. The club's pursuit of Cabal is happening while they are also increasing their efforts to sign Alessio Romagnoli, a move that could be decisive. Bologna has also shown interest in the player; it was reported in August 2026 that they proposed a loan with a €9 million option to buy. Transfermarkt estimates his current market value at €7.00m.
