Juventus are still in the lead to sign Bayern Munich’s Mario Mandzukic this summer, but will have to be prepared for Arsenal and Real Madrid who are also ready to offer big money for the Croatian.
The Old Lady will undergo a transition at the end of this campaign, completely clearly out their strike force such as Mirko Vucinic, Sebastian Giovinco, Pablo Osvaldo and Fabio Quagliarella.
TuttoSport have reported that with the likelihood of players leaving the Juventus Stadium, the fees will help pay towards the €25 million that the German club want for their star talisman.
However reports in England and in Spain suggest that both coach Carlo Ancelotti and Arsenal’s Arsène Wenger are keeping the Bayern striker under close observation if Juve fail to sign him.
Nevertheless, general director Giuseppe Marotta has already written the contract for the 27-year-old, with his representatives already agreeing to the conditions.
