Juventus sporting director Cristiano Giuntoli has played down recent rumors linking the Turin giants with a winter swoop for Joshua Zirkzee. During his latest interview with Sky Sport via Gianluca Di Marzio, Giuntoli denied Bianconeri’s interest in the unsettled Manchester United forward.

It’s no secret that Juventus are in the market for a reliable backup option for Dusan Vlahovic. Heavily linked with a summer move for Lille talisman Jonathan David, the record-time Serie A champions have cast a wide net in search of a new frontman.

Zirzkee has reportedly caught their eye after struggling to adapt to life in the Premier League upon his big-money transfer from Bologna in the summer. However, Giuntoli insists Juventus will not make any approach for the Dutch youngster in the upcoming transfer window.

Arkadiusz Milik has been on the sidelines since the tail-end of last season with a long-term anterior cruciate ligament injury. In addition to missing out on EURO 2024, the Poland international has yet to feature for Juventus this term after undergoing another knee injury in September.

Hopefully, he could be at Thiago Motta’s disposal by the end of December. Meanwhile, Juventus continue to rely on Vlahovic to carry the goalscoring burden all by himself. The Serb slotted home a last-gasp penalty to spare Bianconeri’s blushes in a 2-2 home draw against Venezia last night.
