Gleison may move to Premier League after World Cup, Man Utd and Liverpool interested

According to La Gazzetta dello Sport, Juventus center-back Gleison may transfer after the World Cup, and Manchester United and Liverpool are keeping an eye on him.

Due to accumulated yellow card suspensions, Juventus' Brazilian center-back Gleison ended his Serie A season prematurely, and the loss to Fiorentina may have been his farewell match in Serie A. With Juventus most likely missing out on next season's Champions League, the club's financial situation and team building plans have been severely hit. Gleison, 29, is in the prime of his career, and facing an uncertain future for the club, he, full of ambition to win championships, has begun to re-evaluate his career plan.

Currently, two Premier League giants, Manchester United and Liverpool, have begun to pay close attention to Gleison and have included him in their summer transfer list. The Juventus management previously hoped to build a new cycle around him, led by Spalletti, and even considered extending his contract, which expires in 2029, and adjusting the €58 million release clause. However, after losing the cornerstone of attracting superstars, the Champions League, the Bianconeri's strategy faces a complete collapse, forced to clear high-value players this summer to balance the books.

Although Gleison is very satisfied with life in Turin and has a very good relationship with the Juventus club, he will officially listen to offers from all parties after the Copa América, which is about to start. As a key player for the Brazilian national team coached by Ancelotti, this World Cup will be Gleison's highest-profile stage for self-display. After the World Cup, Gleison will hold talks with the Juventus management in a calm and friendly atmosphere to jointly decide the final destination of this prime center-back, based on the club's short-term strategy and actual external offers.
