Juventus have made an offer for West Ham defender Jean-Clair Todibo, with the player understood to be unwilling to remain at the London club.
According to Gazzetta dello Sport, the Turin side have moved for Todibo as they assess options in defence during the summer transfer window. The report indicates that Juventus have now placed a proposal on the table, although the financial details of the bid have not been disclosed.
Todibo’s stance could become an important factor in the negotiations. The defender reportedly does not want to stay at West Ham, a position that may encourage Juventus as they look to test the Premier League club’s resolve. However, there has been no indication so far of whether West Ham are prepared to accept the offer or seek improved terms.
For Juventus, the pursuit represents a potentially significant move in the market, but the situation remains dependent on talks between the clubs. Without confirmed details on the value of the bid, it is unclear how close the Serie A side are to reaching an agreement.
West Ham’s response will now be key. If the player continues to push for an exit, Juventus could hope to gain leverage, but any transfer would still require the clubs to settle on a suitable package.
The coming days may clarify whether the offer is enough to advance negotiations or whether Juventus will be forced to return with a revised proposal. For now, Todibo has emerged as a live target, and his apparent desire to leave West Ham gives the Italian club a clear opening in their pursuit.
