The race for Juventus’ most versatile asset is officially heating up! As of Tuesday, February 24, 2026, both Liverpool and Manchester City have intensified their scouting of Andrea Cambiaso.
Valued at a steep €60m–€70m, the 26-year-old has become a "system favorite" for Europe’s elite. Known as a "tactical wonder," Cambiaso's ability to dominate as a left-back, right-back, and even a central midfielder has made him the primary target for a summer bidding war.
The Scouting Report: Why Everyone Wants Him
The Inverted Specialist: Pep Guardiola has reportedly been a fan for years. Cambiaso’s comfort in "tucking in" to midfield aligns perfectly with the tactical setups at both the Etihad and Anfield.
The Slot Transition: At Liverpool, Arne Slot views Cambiaso as the ideal successor to Andy Robertson, who is rumored to be nearing an exit this summer. He would provide elite competition for Milos Kerkez.
Juve’s Stance: While Juventus consider him a "long-term pillar" and a future captain, their current struggle to secure a Champions League spot (sitting 5th in Serie A)may force a high-value sale to balance the books.
The "Four Players in One" Tag: Having played left-back, left-midfield, right-wing, and right-back this season alone, he is seen as the ultimate "squad depth" solution for title-chasing teams.
The Price of Versatility: Juventus reportedly turned down offers near €50m in January. Any club wanting the Italian international this summer will need to start the conversation at €60 million.
The Verdict: Cambiaso represents the rare "James Milner type" of utility player but with the technical ceiling of a world-class starter. For Juventus, losing him would be a blow to their identity, but for a Premier League giant, he is the missing tactical piece to solve multiple roster issues in one go.
