Juventus are looking to sign another Ligue defender as they close in on Lille’s Tiago Djalo.
The Portuguese star is expected to complete his transfer to the club in the coming hours, with Juventus looking for another defender in France.
The Bianconeri could lose Alex Sandro and Daniele Rugani at the end of this season and do not seem interested in making new deals with either of them.
This indicates that they probably want to replace them, with Tuttojuve reporting that they are interested in Lens defender Facundo Medina.
The Argentine, only 24 years old, has been one of the key players of the impressive Ligue 1 team.
Juventus have been closely monitoring his development at the French club and the report suggests that the Bianconeri could sign him at the end of the season.
Juve FC says
We need as many new players as possible, especially in the summer when we should be back in the Champions League.
Medina will be a good option to cover our current options, and could even become the first option at the club.
We will hardly be able to sign him this month and he would also prefer to finish his term at Lens, which makes sense to delay the move until the summer.
