Juventus are looking for a center forward to reinforce their attack in the winter market. According to ‘Tuttosport’, The name of Sardar Azmoun sounds strong, Iranian striker for Zenit St. Petersburg, 27, with a contract that expires in June. For him, Zenit asks for five million euros, Juventus has a slightly lower offer ready and expects an answer during the next week.

Azmoun’s characteristics correspond to those of the bomber that the Juventus coach would want: physical, fighter, able to play as a center forward. The arrival of Azmoun would guarantee a reference striker and could open the door of Barça to Morata. This signing, in addition, does not compromise Juventus’s spending capacity for the summer, when a great striker is brought in. The big target is Dusan Vlahovic.

In case Vlahovic is impossible, the ‘bianconeri’ could go for Gianluca Scamacca, for which there should be a meeting in the coming days, in which the director of Juventus Federico Cherubini and the CEO of Sassuolo Giovanni Carnevali will participate.
