Jhon Lucumí, born on 26 June 1998 (age 28), is a Colombian central defender now with Juventus. His market value is around £21.5m, according to Transfermarkt.
His earlier European career included Genk, where the 2019-2020 season brought 22 league appearances and one goal. That remains his most productive league campaign in front of goal, though scoring has never been the point of his work.
The main body of his career has been at Bologna. Across four seasons there, Lucumí made 123 league appearances and scored once, becoming a steady centre-half in a side where his value was built on regular selection rather than noise. It is the spell that has shaped his profile more than any other.
By 2026-2027 he is with Juventus and remains involved in the first-team picture, with two Serie A appearances so far. He has also been part of Colombia’s international set-up, with five World Cup appearances and 14 in South American World Cup qualifying.
Lucumí’s career is that of an established Colombian defender whose standing was made at Bologna and is now being carried into Juventus, with international experience sitting alongside his club work.
