Svilar denies Juventus contact, addresses Scudetto race with Inter and Napoli
Mile Svilar, the Roma and Belgium goalkeeper, has dismissed speculation linking him to Juventus, stating he 'never' spoke with the Turin club about a transfer. In a wide-ranging interview, he turned attention to the Serie A title challenge, expressing that competing with Inter and Napoli 'makes him smile.' Svilar has established himself as a key figure for Roma this season, and his commitment comes as the Giallorossi look to keep pace at the top of the table. The comments suggest stability between the posts for Roma while reinforcing Inter and Napoli's status as the teams to beat in the Scudetto race.
Read the full story at football-italia.netSvilar's denial of Juventus contact removes a distraction that had been hovering over Roma's season and confirms the club's first-choice goalkeeper is committed to the project. His framing of the Scudetto race — treating Inter and Napoli as the benchmarks while still claiming Roma's place in the conversation — reflects the growing confidence around the capital club. For Inter, the acknowledgment from a direct rival validates their position at the summit, while for Juventus, the dead end on Svilar signals they will need to look elsewhere for a long-term goalkeeper solution.
