The 27-year-old Kosovo international joined Juventus from Lille last summer, arriving with a reputation as one of the more dynamic wingers in Ligue 1. His time in Turin has not gone to plan, with 27 competitive appearances yielding no goals and no assists across the campaign.
Zhegrova signed a contract with Juventus that runs until the summer of 2030, but speculation has built in recent months over a potential exit this summer. He has previously been linked with moves to Marseille and Besiktas.
According to Tuttomercatoweb.com, interest from Turkey has intensified, with multiple clubs now showing genuine interest in the winger. Trabzonspor are named as one of the sides involved, with reports indicating the club has already been in contact with Juventus regarding a possible transfer.
Before his move to Lille, Zhegrova came through stints at Swiss club Basel and Belgian side Genk, building a reputation as a direct, dribbling wide player capable of beating defenders one-on-one.
Juventus, meanwhile, are dealing with the fallout of a disappointing domestic campaign. The Turin club finished sixth in Serie A last season, a position that means they will compete in the Europa League rather than the Champions League next term.
For a club aiming to rebuild and compete at the top of Italian football again, moving on players who have failed to make an impact represents a logical step, particularly with European football planning and squad balance both factors in transfer decisions this summer.
For Zhegrova, a move to Turkey would represent a significant change of scenery after a difficult debut season in Italy. Trabzonspor and any other interested Turkish clubs would likely view the winger as a player capable of rediscovering the form that made him a target for major European clubs before his switch to Juventus.
With his contract running for several more years, Juventus retain control over any negotiation, but a player with zero goal contributions in his debut season carries diminishing leverage the longer the situation goes unresolved. Whether a return to a more attacking, expansive league environment in Turkey could revive his career remains to be seen, but for now, the interest from Trabzonspor adds a concrete option to a transfer saga that has so far been dominated by speculation.
