Juventus is keeping a close eye on Conrad Harder. The 20-year-old Danish player is on their shopping list for next season. They need someone to replace Dusan Vlahovic, who might join Fenerbahçe. Vlahovic has a huge salary, so Juventus wants a younger, cheaper option.
Harder joined Sporting from Nordsjaelland for €19 million in 2024. He didn’t become a starter because Viktor Gyokeres was so good. But Harder still played 47 games, scored 11 goals, and had 7 assists. He was one of the team’s top scorers, along with Francisco Trincão. Harder ended the season strong, scoring a key goal against Benfica in the Portuguese Cup final.
Harder’s contract with Sporting runs until 2029, and he has an €80 million release clause. In a recent interview, he said he’s ready to take Gyokeres’ place if the Swedish player leaves. But everything can change depending on the market.
For now, Harder is focused on the European Under-21 Championship with Denmark. They’ll face Ukraine, the Netherlands, and Finland in the group stage. The tournament will be held in Slovakia.
Conrad Harder’s stats:
- Games played: 47
- Goals scored: 11
- Assists: 7
What’s next for Harder?
Harder’s future is uncertain. Juventus is interested, but he has a contract with Sporting. The summer transfer market will be exciting, with many top teams looking for new players. Harder’s performance in the European Under-21 Championship could boost his value and attract even more attention from big clubs.
