Juventus Disturbs Man United in the Hunt for Toby Alderweireld

DBasia.news –  Ole Gunnar Solskjaer immediately wanted a new recruit after being appointed as permanent manager by Manchester United. The new recruit is believed to be able to add to the quality of the team next season.

Not a few players are included in the shopping list, including tough Tottenham Hotspur defender Toby Alderweireld who has long been the main target. Even the latest news also mentions that the Lilywhites will immediately release him to Old Trafford.

But it seems the Red Devils are not alone in hunting the signature of the player who plays as the center defender. According to reports from Football Italia, the Italian giant, Juventus is a new interest in Alderweireld.

Actually, the 30-year-old player’s contract will end at the end of the season, but then the Spurs activated the extension option for one season. This still did not make Juve take a step back, the club didn’t even mind spending 30 million euros.

Bianconeri’s interest in Alderweireld was allegedly because they assumed that the player would add strength to the defense, even though the defending Serie A champions still had Leonardo Bonucci, Giorgio Chiellini and players who had just added their tenure, Daniele Rugani.

Toby Alderweireld decided to continue his career with Tottenham Hotspur in the 2015 summer transfer market. At that time he was brought in from Atletico Madrid for a fee of 11.5 million pounds, before he also had time to undergo a loan period with Southampton.

If in the end the player born in Antwerp, Belgium joins Massimiliano Allegri’s squad, then Alderweireld will become the second recruit in the summer of 2019, before Juve had already secured Aaron Ramsey.
