The report says Just returned from the tournament with greater confidence after a period in which he had questioned whether he was progressing. That personal turnaround may prove just as important as his goals when clubs assess whether to make a move.
For Motherwell, the timing is difficult to ignore. A player who has gained international attention can become a valuable asset, but the club must also decide whether keeping him for another season could bring sporting rewards and increase his value further.
A move to Celtic or Rangers would offer Just a step up within Scottish football and potentially a route into European competition. The report says he has never played in Europe and considers that experience important.
Yet the player’s reported priority is playing regularly and enjoying his football. That could make a move to a less obvious European destination just as appealing as a switch to one of Scotland’s giants. The next club must offer more than a bigger name; it must provide a credible role.
Just is expected to return to Motherwell after a short break and meet new manager Alfred Johansson. That conversation could shape the immediate future. Johansson may see an opportunity to build around a forward returning from the biggest stage of his career, while Just will want clarity over the club’s ambitions.
The next storyline will be whether reported interest becomes a formal approach during the transfer window-or whether Just begins the new season at Motherwell with a new manager and an even higher profile.
