Juventus are tracking Ipswich Town forward Liam Delap as they plan for a post-Vlahović era. The 21-year-old is also attracting interest from Premier League giants.

As Juventus continue to plan for the 2024–25 season, with Champions League qualification still uncertain, the club has begun outlining its transfer strategy—particularly in attack, where big changes are expected.

The situation surrounding Dušan Vlahović remains pivotal. With the Serbian striker unlikely to renew his contract, his departure this summer now appears almost inevitable. Meanwhile, Randal Kolo Muani, on a dry loan from Paris Saint-Germain, has struggled to find form under coach Igor Tudor. Despite this, Juventus may still attempt to negotiate a new loan deal with a purchase option valid through summer 2026.

Regardless of Kolo Muani’s future, the Bianconeri are in the market for a new centre-forward. While Victor Osimhen—currently on loan at Galatasaray from Napoli—remains a priority target, another name has surfaced: Liam Delap, the 21-year-old English striker currently playing for Ipswich Town.

According to Tuttosport, Juventus are closely monitoring Delap, who has impressed in the Premier League this season and fits the profile of a physically dominant, mobile forward. The club sees him as a long-term investment, particularly appealing given his age and development trajectory.

However, competition is stiff. Several Premier League clubs, including Manchester United and Chelsea, are also following Delap closely, meaning Juventus may need to act swiftly if they want to secure his services.
