Juventus are at serious risk of missing out on a top-four finish in Serie A, which could have major consequences for their squad. Reports suggest that failing to qualify for the UEFA Champions League would force the club to consider a big sale in the summer window. The decision will depend on two key factors: the difficulty of finding replacements and the financial gain from player sales. Without Champions League revenue, the club may have to rebalance its finances, making at least one high-profile departure likely.
Thuram leads list of possible exits
Khephren Thuram is currently seen as the leading candidate to leave. The midfielder has attracted interest from top English clubs, including Liverpool and Manchester United. Having joined from Nice for around 20 million, Thuram could now command a fee of over 40 million, making him a valuable asset for the club to cash in on.

Kalulu and Bremer also on the radar
Defender Pierre Kalulu is another player who could depart. Juventus signed him from Milan for 14 million, and while he may not fetch a huge fee, interest from English clubs could still lead to a transfer. Meanwhile, Bremer is also being considered for an exit. Despite his strong performances, injuries have affected his consistency. With his contract running until 2028, Juventus could look to sell now before his market value drops further.

Uncertain summer ahead
Much will depend on how Juventus finish the season. Securing a Champions League spot could help them retain their core squad, but missing out may trigger a reshuffle. As things stand, the club faces a crucial period in which sporting results and financial realities could shape the team's future.
