– Tottenham Hotspur center back Cristian Romero has attracted serious interest from Barcelona and Atlético Madrid, according to TEAMtalk. The 27-year-old is reportedly growing increasingly frustrated over Spurs’ recruitment strategy and lack of high-profile signings, which has made him keen to join a club that regularly competes in the latter stages of the Champions League. The Argentina international even hinted at the north London club’s lack of squad depth being “unbelievable but true and disgraceful” on Instagram.
– La Gazzetta dello Sport have suggested that Juventus will look to bring in free agents during the summer, starting with Bournemouth center back Marcos Senesi, who they feel could provide competition for Lloyd Kelly. Juve favour Roma right-back Zeki Çelik over Celta Vigo’s Óscar Mingueza due to his Serie A experience. In midfield, they are keeping an eye on Manchester City’s Bernardo Silva and have made a move for Al Ahli’s Franck Kessié, even if their dream signing is Newcastle United’s Sandro Tonali.
– Juventus may be looking at free agents for other areas, but Tuttosport report that they are willing to spend on a striker. Presuming they don’t sign Galatasaray’s Victor Osimhen, Juventus could look to re-sign Paris Saint-Germain’s Randal Kolo Muani once his Tottenham Hotspur loan has come to an end. Crystal Palace’s Jean-Philippe Mateta is their main alternative, as initial discussions with the 28-year-old’s entourage had always been geared towards a summer deal rather than a January transfer.
