Borussia Dortmund, Leverkusen, RB Leipzig and Stuttgart have also been linked with a move for Schmitz, with Juventus reportedly making the move ahead of the others.

However, Juventus faces competition from several Bundesliga clubs, including Borussia Dortmund, Bayer Leverkusen, RB Leipzig, and VfB Stuttgart. As well as Premier League side Brighton & Hove Albion. Schmitz signed his first professional contract with St. Pauli in January 2025, which runs until 2027, potentially influencing the transfer negotiations.
