Defender · Juventus

BrazilActive

Gleison Bremer is fully back from a 16-month ACL-and-meniscus ordeal, heading Juventus to an opening-day win and reaching 100 appearances for the club.

Career

Bremer tore his ACL in October 2024 during a Champions League win over RB Leipzig, returned to action in late 2025, then needed a further meniscus operation before settling back into the side. He scored against Parma in February 2026 as he worked his way back to full sharpness.

He reached his 100th Juventus appearance and opened the 2026-27 season by heading in the winner against Frosinone on 2 September 2026.

How they play

An aerial threat as much as a stopper: since the start of 2022-23, Opta has him level with Virgil van Dijk for the most headed goals (11) by any defender in Europe's top five leagues.

Where they are now

Transfer interest has persisted through his recovery, including reported Bundesliga interest below his release clause, even as Juventus try to keep their rebuilt backline together.
