Juventus set to loan Ekhator out after €18m Genoa swoop
Teenage striker Jeff Ekhator’s Juventus future hangs in the balance just days after his €18m arrival from Genoa, with a loan exit likely amid a stacked attack under Spalletti.
Juventus are preparing to loan out teenage striker Jeff Ekhator less than 48 hours after completing his €18m transfer from Genoa. The Bianconeri’s attack is already overcrowded with established options, including Jonathan David, Lois Openda, and Arkadiusz Milik, leaving little room for the 19-year-old to break into Spalletti’s first team. The arrival of David alone—acquired for €30m from Lille—underlines the club’s preference for proven senior strikers, a trend that marginalizes younger talent like Ekhator.
