Luca Marrone - Juventus

While Juventus are still looking to shed some of their unwanted attackers, midfielder Luca Marrone could be set to exit with Udinese circling around him.

Although they would like to sell Alessandro Matri and Fabio Quagliarella, they now look open to parting company with the 23-year-old who has found first team opportunities limited in Turin.

Gazzetta dello SportĀ are today reporting that due to the good relationship between the two clubs following the sales of Kwadwo Asamoah and Mauricio Isla to Juventus recently, the Zebrette are looking to capitalise on this by signing the former Siena loanee who can also play at the centre of a defence.

Although Everton were interested in the player earlier in the season, Udinese now face competition from Fiorentina and Parma for the player’s signature.

Marrone has made just 20 appearances in total for Juventus during his time at the club having progressed through their youth system.
