Juventus are being heavily linked with a move for Manchester City misfit forward Stevan Jovetic.

The 24-year-old Montenegro international joined City from Fiorentina for a reported €27 million in June last year but only made 13 league appearances due to a calf injury.

According to Tuttosport, the Bianconeri have sounded out the forward about a move back to Italy and would look to sign the player on a loan deal with a view to a permanent move next summer.

However, any potential deal could be made more difficult as in the past few days City striker Alvaro Negredo has suffered a broken metatarsal and is expected to be out of action for for two months.

Jovetic enjoyed a successful five year spell with Fiorentina after signing from Partizan Belgarde in 2008, netting 35 goals in 116 appearances for La Viola.
