Juventus targets young Flamengo star during 2025 FIFA Club World Cup

Juventus has a dual agenda during their visit to the United States for the 2025 FIFA Club World Cup — besides competing, they are also targeting Flamengo’s young talent who is dubbed as Cafu’s successor.

Igor Tudor‘s team earned their ticket to this tournament thanks to their 8th position in UEFA rankings over the last four years. In this prestigious competition, Juventus is drawn in Group G alongside:

  • Manchester City (England)
  • Wydad Casablanca (Morocco)
  • Al Ain (United Arab Emirates)

La Vecchia Signora, strengthened by Kenan Yildiz, is not only focusing on matches — club management is using this moment to observe Flamengo’s young talent who has a playing style similar to Brazilian legend Cafu.
