According to Calciomercato, Juventus are interested in a move for Chelsea right-back Malo Gusto. The Juventus hierarchy are said to have admired the defender for a long time and see him as a potential solution to the club’s right-back issue. Juventus are reportedly aware that Chelsea might be open to selling if an appropriate offer is made. The sporting directors of the Turin-based club are understood to have started contact with Gusto’s representatives to determine his willingness to move, though no formal bid has yet been made.

According to the Italian press, Juventus is attentively monitoring Malo Gusto's situation. Gusto is valued for his speed, activity, and offensive contribution, and Juventus' management is seeking a player with his profile to reinforce the right flank, potentially as soon as the January transfer window. At Chelsea, Malo Gusto currently shares playing time with the team's captain, Reece James.

According to the Gazzetta Dello Sport, the process of signing Malo Gusto is considered to be very complicated and the deal is not close to being completed. The report adds that Juventus views him as an alternative for Igor Tudor, with the position set to become a priority in the next transfer window. Malo Gusto recently stated that he feels good under Enzo Maresca. He explained that the coach asked him for a lot of things, which he appreciates, and that he always tries to give his best. Gusto added that he can play in several positions, but the most important thing for him is to perform on the pitch, continue to progress as a player, and try to help the team as much as possible.

Juventus is monitoring the right-back market for the January 2026 winter transfer window and has identified a new target. La Gazzetta dello Sport reports that the club now considers the 22-year-old French international Malo Gusto of Chelsea an interesting option. This follows summer contacts Juventus had for Nahuel Molina, who remained at Atletico Madrid. Gusto has a contract with the London club until 2030 and has made 7 appearances and provided 1 assist in the Premier League this season. His current market value is €35.00m, according to Transfermarkt.
