Having failed to find a deal for Wesley Sneijder, Juventus may turn their attention to Henrikh Mkhitaryan or Adnan Januzaj.

A few late reports this evening linked Juventus with a series of players around Europe, beginning with Borussia Dortmund’s Armenian midfielder Henrikh Mkhitaryan. While it’s still only a rumour at this early stage, Mkhitaryan does have a rather tenuous connection to Juventus as he shares the same agent as Paul Pogba. Mino Raiola did meet with his client in Turin a few days ago but it was reported as being little more than a courtesy call.

 

 

Next up, Gazzetta dello Sport’s Carlo Laudisa suggested that having missed out on Galatasaray’s Wesley Sneijder, Juve could instead look at taking Manchester United Adnan Januzaj on loan. Once again, there’s no mention of any figures so at this stage, it’s likely to be little more than a rumour.

 


Fiorentina have long been linked with Juve forward Sebastian Giovinco while the Bianconeri are said to be looking for a short term successor to Gianluigi Buffon. Gianluca Di Marzio reported earlier today that the two sides may have come to an agreement that would see the players move in opposite directions, both of whom are out of contract in the summer.

 

 

And finally, SportItalia report that West Bromwich Albion made a request to loan Kingsley Coman for the remainder of the season however the Bianconeri declined the offer. You can read more on that story here.
