Official: Juventus sell Mbangula to Werder Bremen
Juventus have officially confirmed the sale of Next Gen graduate Samuel Mbangula to Bundesliga side SV Werder Bremen on a permanent deal after one season in the Bianconeri first-team. Juventus have confirmed that Werder Bremen will pay a fee of €10m over four instalments, plus bonuses of up to €2m. The Bianconeri have also confirmed that the sale of the recent Belgium international has raised €6.9m in capital gains. The 21-year-old has reportedly signed a five-year contract in northern Germany, which will run until the summer of 2030. Werder had an initial bid of €8m plus add-ons turned down by The Old Lady just over a week ago, according to reports in Italy. Official: Mbangula joins Werder Bremen from Juventus Mbangula leaves Juventus after a five-year association that began with his transfer from Anderlecht in the summer of 2020. He spent four years with the Primavera and Next Gen teams, before being thrown into the first-team set-up under Thiago Motta at the start of the 2024-25 season. Mbangula marked his first competitive start in the Juve senior side with the team's opening goal of the 2024-25 Serie A season in a 3-0 win over newly-promoted Como in the first weekend of the season.

Only Kenan Yildiz (six), Khephren Thuram and Dusan Vlahovic (both five) provided more Serie A assists than the Belgian last term (four). 'We are very pleased that we were able to sign Samuel and that he has made a long-term decision to join Werder,' said Peter Niemeyer, sporting director at Werder Bremen. He continued: 'We see a lot of potential in him. He enjoyed an excellent education in Belgium and especially at Juve and proved his quality at the highest level with Juventus' professionals last season. 'For us, this is a transfer that we have implemented with full conviction. We have always said that we are also willing to invest if we are convinced of a player and his potential. This is absolutely the case with Samuel. We are convinced that he will help us directly with his quality.'

Werder Bremen complete record purchase of Samuel Mbangula
Samuel Mbangula's transfer to Werder Bremen has been officially confirmed. The now former Juventus FC professional moves to the Bundesliga on a record €10m deal. Mbangula is Werder's second most expensive purchase ever. Only Davy Klaasen's €13.5m purchase in 2018 cost the Bundesliga outfit more. Werder's pursuit of Mbangula intensified after injuries to a trio of attackers left newly appointed head coach Horst Steffen with dwindling options. Prior to this deal, Bremen remained extremely quiet on the transfer front this summer. Only Mbangula and Leeds defender Maximilian Wöber have been brought in. 'We see a lot of potential in him,' SV licensing head Peter Niemeyer noted of his new signing in a club statement. 'He proved his quality at the highest level with the Juventus professionals last season. We have always said that we are willing to invest if we are convinced of a player and his potential. That is absolutely the case with Samuel.' 'Samuel brings good pace to the team,' Steffen himself added. 'He is very well trained in terms of football and tactics and can play in several positions in attack. He'll thus make our game more flexible.' GGFN |

Million-euro deal close: Werder set to sign Juve wonderkid!
As Belgian transfer expert Sacha Tavolieri reported on Saturday evening, Werder Bremen is making significant progress in the poker game for Samuel Mbangula from Juventus. Accordingly, both clubs have moved much closer together in the past few hours. Therefore, a deal can be expected soon! The people of Bremen are digging deep into their pockets for the 21-year-old left winger and, according to Tavolieri, are paying a transfer fee of a total of twelve million euros. This amount includes possible bonus payments, so the first payment will likely be lower. Werder has already agreed on a transfer with Mbangula himself. The Belgian U21 international is supposed to sign a five-year contract until 2030 at the Osterdeich! This article was translated into English by Artificial Intelligence.

Bremen show interest in another Serie A attacker
Both L'Équipe and Gianluca Di Marzio report that Werder Bremen add Samuel Mbangula to their wishlist for this summer. The 21-year-old winger was an unused substitute in Juventus' four Club World Cup games. However, he was a regular fixture in their latest Serie A campaign, scoring three goals in 23 appearances. Nottingham Forest, who just got promoted from the Conference League to the Europa League, tried to sign the player earlier in the window, but that move is now off the table. Mbangula was also previously linked with Bayer Leverkusen, AS Monaco and Bournemouth. Bremen would be looking to sign the Belgium U21 international on a loan deal.

Nottingham Forest target £20m double swoop of Juventus wingers after club REJECTED £45m bid from Newcastle for ex-Man United star
Nottingham Forest hope to seal a cut-price deal for Juventus wingers Timothy Weah and Samuel Mbangula amid continued interest from Newcastle in Anthony Elanga. With Newcastle pushing for Elanga and able to offer Champions League football, Forest may need reinforcements in wide areas and believe they can sign both Mbangula and Weah for less than £20m combined. The relatively low price is thought to be due to Juventus' need to raise funds to rebuild their squad, with former Tottenham and Liverpool chief Damien Comolli now in charge of transfers. Forest are likely to sell at least one key player this summer and with Manchester City appearing to have cooled their interest in Morgan Gibbs-White, Newcastle believe they have a chance of landing Elanga this summer. The former Manchester United winger is valued at about £60m. Meanwhile, Neco Williams is set to sign a new four-year deal at the City Ground, elevating him closer to the top pay bracket at the club. Forest also hope to agree a deal for Brazilian forward Igor Jesus once his club, Botafogo, have completed their Club World Cup campaign. They face fellow Brazilian side Palmeiras in the last 16.
