Juventus continue to reshape their goalkeeping department as the Bianconeri are close to reaching an agreement with Wolfsburg for Kamil Grabara, days after the purchase of Guglielmo Vicario.

Poland international Grabara is close to joining Juventus, as first reported by Polish reporter Tomasz Włodarczyk.

The news was then confirmed by Fabrizio Romano, who claimed that negotiations between Juventus and Wolfsburg are at an advanced stage for a loan deal with an option to buy.

The transfer fee remains undisclosed at this stage, but talks are advanced, and according to Włodarczyk, Grabara will land in Turin in the coming days to complete his move to the Allianz Stadium.

Grabara, 27, is a former Liverpool U23 player and has been under contract with Wolfsburg since 2024.

Juventus have made massive changes between the sticks this summer, having announced the signing of Vicario from Tottenham last week, while Michele Di Gregorio will join Bournemouth on loan with an option to buy, and Mattia Perin is in advanced talks with Serie B side Palermo.

What happened

Juventus are reportedly close to securing Radosław Grabara, the Polish goalkeeper currently at Copenhagen, as they continue a significant overhaul of their goalkeeping department. The move follows previous deals involving Guglielmo Vicario and Michele Di Gregorio, suggesting a strategic rebuild of the position. Grabara has been one of the most consistent keepers in European football, and his arrival would give Juventus another option between the posts. The scale of the changes points to a clear long-term plan from the Turin club to solidify a key area of the squad.

Chance analysis

Juventus are signalling intent with a thorough restructuring of their goalkeeping unit, layering additions rather than relying on a single marquee signing. Bringing in Grabara on top of Vicario and Di Gregorio suggests a depth-driven approach with genuine competition for the starting role, which has often been unsettled at the Allianz Stadium in recent seasons. For a club rebuilding around a new sporting identity, settling the last line of defence is a foundational move that shapes how the rest of the squad is constructed.

Impact

A Grabara arrival would deepen Juventus' goalkeeping options and complete an ambitious rebuild of the position, though it also creates competition that may unsettle current keepers.
