Juventus target Brahim Diaz as Real Madrid election confirmed
Florentino Perez won the Real Madrid presidential election. His re‑election is seen as a boost for Juventus’ pursuit of Brahim Diaz this summer.
Juventus have listed Brahim Diaz as a primary target for the 2026 summer transfer window. Coach Luciano Spalletti has identified the Morocco international as his priority attacking‑midfield signing to add quality in the final third.
Perez’s continuation at Real Madrid includes a announced €150 million deal for a major summer signing, which could limit Brahim Diaz’s minutes at the Bernabeu. The arrival of Nico Paz from a two‑season spell at Como further intensifies competition for attacking roles.

Juventus have not yet reached an agreement with Real Madrid or Brahim Diaz, who appears in no hurry to discuss his future.

Brahim Diaz will feature for Morocco at the World Cup, and a strong tournament could attract additional clubs to his chase. Juventus are also negotiating with centre‑forwards Alexander Sorloth and Randal Kolo Munai to reshape their attack for the 2026‑27 season.
