American international Sergiño Dest, 24, formerly of Barcelona and currently with PSV Eindhoven, was proposed to Juventus as a potential signing. Juventus, in search of a right-back, considered several options, including Dest, as reported by journalist Fabrizio Romano. However, the club did not find the right opportunity to proceed with any of the proposals, including that of Dest, and ultimately decided not to make a signing in that position. Dest's contract with PSV runs until the summer of 2028, and his market value is estimated by Transfermarkt to be €16 million.
