UEFA Champions League
The figure of Christian Mawissa has emerged forcefully in the transfer agenda of Juventus de Turin, who is looking to strengthen their defense with an under-22 center-back capable of providing immediate competitiveness and projection for the upcoming years.
Juventus de Turin speeds up for Christian Mawissa
As reported by 'Calciomercato', the Italian club has implemented a clear strategy: to incorporate a young defender who does not occupy an additional place in the main squad and fits into their progressive renewal plan in the defensive line. In this context, Christian Mawissa fits perfectly, and his price would be around 20 million euros.
The young center-back, born in 2005, is well known to Damien Comolli, current sporting director of Juventus, who saw him grow at Toulouse. This direct connection could become a key point in the negotiations. The club's priority is to act in the winter transfer market, where Mawissa is already among the most serious options.
Juventus is also tracking other profiles, such as Tiago Gabriel or Tarik Muharemovic, but the French defender stands out for his competitive maturity and his ability to adapt to different schemes.
The evolution of Christian Mawissa at AS Monaco
After making his Ligue 1 debut at just 17 years old, Mawissa had a meteoric rise from Toulouse's reserve team to the first team, and later to AS Monaco in the summer of 2024. Since then, his progression has been constant.
He has played key minutes both in the French league and in European competitions, demonstrating reliability, well-measured aggression, and a remarkable ability to anticipate in critical zones. This early maturity has made him one of the great hopes in French football.
Furthermore, his status as a left-footed center-back makes him particularly sought after in the international market, where such profiles are scarce.
His versatility is also a plus: he can perform as a left-back when the system demands it, a quality that coaches who prioritize tactical flexibility admire.
Potential impact in Serie A and at Juventus
Mawissa's arrival would represent a significant move in the defensive landscape of Serie A, especially for a club trying to rejuvenate its squad without sacrificing immediate competitiveness. Juventus has been searching for months for a reinforcement that fits the balance between present and future.
A defender with Mawissa's potential would allow them to move forward without neglecting the more experienced players, creating a gradual and well-planned transition.
Moreover, he would fit ideally into the systems the club has experimented with in recent months, where the left-footed profile is crucial to balance ball distribution.

Christian Mawissa, facing the challenge of taking a bigger leap
If the transfer materializes, Mawissa would have to tackle a major challenge: adapting to a league known for its tactical rigor and defensive demands.
Serie A requires discipline, game reading, and mental strength, qualities that the French player has already shown during his time at AS Monaco.
However, moving to a European giant like Juventus implies dealing with a different kind of pressure, high expectations, and an environment that demands immediate performance.
If he manages to overcome this adaptation curve, the young center-back could become one of the standout defensive names on the continent.
Juventus sees in Christian Mawissa a strategic investment and a key move to reinforce their defense for the future. His name, with increasing prominence, is back at the center of attention.
