Albert Gudmundsson has expressed strong support for Moise Kean’s abilities, suggesting he would welcome a reunion with the forward in the upcoming season, according to an interview with Sky Sport cited by Tutto Juve. The Icelandic international reflected on Kean’s contributions during their previous spell together, calling him “a great player” who “showed last season what he is capable of” and lauded his impact on teammates: “He made life easy for me. I can’t wait to play with him again and hope it happens this year.”
Kean’s future has become a frequent topic as Juventus consider their next steps in the transfer market. Despite the uncertainty, Gudmundsson’s assessment highlights the regard in which Kean is held by fellow professionals, especially after what he termed a “super season.” Such endorsements could shape both the player’s prospects and club ambitions as the summer window approaches.
Juventus, meanwhile, continues to generate headlines for a variety of transfer and sporting director developments. Over at Bianconera News, journalist Giovanni Capuano weighed in on the scale of recent moves within Serie A, drawing a comparison between Napoli’s high-profile swoop for Kevin De Bruyne and the effect Cristiano Ronaldo’s arrival had at Juventus. Capuano wrote, “It’s been since Ronaldo at Juventus that a signing like De Bruyne has generated this level of excitement and technical impact on the league.” The move is seen as shifting expectations, putting pressure on Napoli to deliver domestically and in Europe, much like Juventus faced during the Ronaldo era.
While Juventus navigates a transitional phase, the club remains at the centre of debate, from significant incomings and outgoings to evolving leadership off the pitch. The optimism around De Bruyne’s move to Naples exemplifies the standard of acquisition that once defined Juventus and continues to set the bar for Serie A’s top clubs. Gudmundsson’s praise for Kean, meanwhile, keeps the focus on the value of internal resources and the possibility of revitalized impact from those already familiar with the demands in Turin.
