Juventus linked with switch for young Serbian defender Strahinja PavlovicJuvefc.com

Although the summer transfer market is still very advanced, Juventus is already keeping an eye on several names with a view to the future.

According to Gazzetta dello Sport via Calciomercato, the Italians are closely following 21-year-old Strahinja Pavlovic.

The source claims that the Old Lady has identified the young Serb as a possible candidate for the left-back position.

Like Dusan Vlahovic, the defender is a young Partizan product who left the Serbian capital at a young age to make a name for himself on the continental scene.

Pavlovic signed for Monaco in 2020 and embarked on several loan spells during his time with the principality.

Last summer, Red Bull Salzburg wasted 7 million euros for his services. However, the Austrians are reportedly willing to sell for a quick windfall, pricing the player at between €20m and €25m.

Pavlovic has so far made eight league appearances this season, scoring one goal and providing one assist in the process. He has also started all four of Salzburg’s Champions League games.

The source adds that in addition to the great Serbian defender, Juventus are tracking four other defenders.

Federico Cherubini’s shortlist includes Eintracht Frankfurt’s Evan Ndicka, Fiorentina’s Igor, Arsenal’s Gabriel and Spezia’s Jakub Kiwior.
