What will be the future of Jhon Lucumi? The defender, who has shone in recent seasons with Bologna, appears to be on the verge of a new adventure in his career, as stated by his agent in previous weeks. Among the teams showing interest, Juventus stands out as one of the main clubs, not only in Italy, but also across Europe.

In a recent interview with "La Gazzetta dello Sport", Lucumi addressed the topic of his future, but without committing too much, as his attention is completely focused on the Colombian team and the World Cup competition: "In Italy they talk about me in terms of the market? (smiling) Right now, I'm focused on the World Cup... As for Juventus, it's not the right time to discuss these issues. I want to dedicate myself only to Colombia. When I return to Italy, we will have time to talk about all this", said the Colombian defender.

In recent days, Giovanni Carnevali, managing director of Juventus, commented directly on Lucumi, indicating that the club is attentive to his situation: "Lucumi? At the moment, there is no progress, especially as he has a release clause of 28 million euros. We believe that its value is slightly different from what the clause indicates. It's true that we are interested, but not in the current conditions", said Carnevali, referring to the Bologna central defender.

Lucumi has shown impressive performance in Serie A, which has attracted the attention of several clubs. His solid playing style and defensive ability have been crucial for his team, and Juventus see him as a potential addition who could strengthen their defense. However, the final decision on his future will only be made after the World Cup, where he hopes to shine and help Colombia achieve good results.

Meanwhile, Bologna and Juventus fans are eagerly awaiting further developments on this situation, as both clubs have a lot to gain from a possible deal. Lucumi continues to be a player to watch, not only for his performances on the field, but also for what the future holds for him once the World Cup comes to an end.
