Report: Juventus launch move for VfB Stuttgart's defensive star Jeff Chabot

The Bianconeri are prepared to make a decisive push to secure the 27-year-old's signature in the current transfer window, according to reports from Italy.

Gazzetta dello Sport reported that Juventus are ready to offer approximately 15 million euros for Chabot, a significant increase from the 4 million euros Stuttgart paid to sign him from FC Koln in 2024.

This potential deal could deliver a substantial profit for the German club, who are now weighing their options amid interest from Saudi Arabian side Neom SC, which may drive the transfer fee higher.

Chabot, a 1.95m defender known for his physicality and versatility, featured in 45 matches for Stuttgart last season, scoring three goals. His ability to play both centrally and as a left-back makes him an attractive target for Juventus, who are reshaping their squad under head coach Igor Tudor.

"Chabot's profile fits our vision for a robust and flexible defence," a source close to the club said, as reported by Corriere dello Sport.

The German defender is no stranger to Serie A, having previously played for Sampdoria and Spezia Calcio, where he showcased his aerial dominance and tactical awareness.

However, Juventus face competition, with Neom SC emerging as a potential rival. Stuttgart, aware of Chabot's value, have reportedly set a price tag between 20 and 25 million euros.

Whether Juventus can secure the deal ahead of rival interest remains to be seen, but the club's proactive approach underscores their ambition to compete at the top of Serie A and beyond.
