Juventus Targeting Manuel Locatelli As An Alternative to Paul Pogba

DBasia.news – Juventus reportedly Calciomercato has found an alternative to Paul Pogba. The name of Sassuolo midfielder Manuel Locatelli is said to have attracted La Vecchia Signora.

Juventus plans to continue to revolutionize the midfield sector. After releasing Miralem Pjanic last summer, it was Sami Khedira’s turn to pack the suitcases.

Then, to add ammunition, Juventus have brought in Arthur and Weston McKennie. The two midfielders began to mingle with other players.

Juventus still needs another midfielder. The player that has been dreaming of is Paul Pogba. The Juventus player reportedly wants to leave Manchester United.

However, until now, Manchester United still want to keep Pogba. Even if they sell, The Red Devils are predicted to have a high official price.

Juventus does not remain silent. Juve are looking for a player who can be an alternative to Pogba. Of course, the midfielder’s price must be cheaper than Pogba.

Calciomercato reports, the player who attracted Juve was Manuel Locatelli. The Italian international midfielder is the soul in Sassuolo’s second line.

This season, Manuel Locatelli appeared in 12 matches in Serie A. He scored two goals. Meanwhile, his playing minutes reached 1,072 minutes.

In fact, Juventus have tried to bring the former AC Milan player in the transfer market earlier this season. However, at that time Juve failed to fulfill Sassuolo’s request. The price of the 22-year-old midfielder is predicted to reach 30 million euros.
