Marcos Rojo Sporting LisbonJuventus have joined a growing number of suitors for Argentina and Sporting CP fullback Marcos Rojo.

The 24-year-old Argentina international has had a fine World Cup tournament so far and the player is keen to move on to play at a top European club side.

According to TuttoSport, Rojo is being targeted by a host of European sides as well as Juventus including the likes of Barcelona, Liverpool, Paris Saint-Germain, Roma and Napoli.

The report also goes on to suggest that the Lisbon outfit would seek around €12 million for the defender, roughly twice his pre-World Cup valuation.

Rojo has been with the Lions since 2012 when he was signed from Russian side Spartak Moscow for around €4.5m and has also racked up over twenty international caps for his country, scoring a solitary goal, which proved to be the match winner against Nigeria in their World Cup group stage encounter.
