Juventus have officially confirmed the signing of one of Europe's brightest young talents, with Kerim Alajbegović completing a high-profile move to Turin.
The 18-year-old Bosnia and Herzegovina international joins the Serie A giants in a deal worth around €35 million and has signed a five-year contract with the Italian club.
Although Alajbegović arrives from Bayer Leverkusen, his recent career has taken an unusual path. Last year, Leverkusen sold the winger to RB Salzburg for just €2 million. The German club then exercised an agreement to bring him back for €8 million before completing his lucrative transfer to Juventus only months later.
The move crowns a remarkable year for the German-born winger, who significantly raised his profile with outstanding performances for Bosnia and Herzegovina at the 2026 FIFA World Cup in the United States, Canada and Mexico.
Juventus believe they have secured one of European football's most exciting attacking prospects. In their official announcement, the club described Alajbegović as a versatile winger capable of playing on either flank, comfortable with both feet and possessing the pace, unpredictability and technical ability to trouble any defence.
The youngster enjoyed an impressive campaign with RB Salzburg, scoring 13 goals and providing four assists in 44 appearances, performances that attracted the attention of several leading European clubs before Juventus won the race for his signature.
Alajbegović made his senior debut for Bosnia and Herzegovina in September last year and quickly established himself as one of the key players under head coach Sergej Barbarez. His maturity, confidence and consistency have made him one of the biggest hopes for the future of Bosnian football.
Juventus are convinced they have signed a player capable of becoming a cornerstone of the club's long-term project, while Bosnian supporters will hope their newest star continues his rapid rise on one of football's biggest stages.
