Juventus joins Napoli in the race to sign Moroccan star Youssef En-Nesyri

21 January 2026

According to reports seen by the Statsroom Juventus has entered the race to sign Moroccan international striker Youssef En-Nesyri, currently playing for Turkish club Fenerbahçe, during the current winter transfer window.

Reports claim that that Juventus has joined its rival Napoli in the pursuit of En-Nesyri, especially after the southern Italian club's attempts to sign French striker Philippe Mateta from English club Crystal Palace fell through.

According to Italian journalist Di Marzio, the Moroccan international is open to listening to all offers following the conclusion of the Africa Cup of Nations, which recently ended in his home country, as interest in signing him from major Italian clubs is growing.

It is rumored that both Juventus and Napoli are considering loaning him out, but En-Nesyri is expected to prioritize a destination that guarantees him regular playing time.

En-Nesyri (28 years old) remains under contract with Fenerbahce until the summer of 2029, having joined the Turkish club in the summer of 2024 from Sevilla of Spain for 20 million euros.
