Juventus are reportedly closing in on Lazio star Antonio Candreva.

Newly appointed Juve coach Massimiliano Allegri has identified Candreva as a key target in the summer transfer window, and the two clubs have reportedly reached the latter stages of negotiations.

Corriere della Sera claim that the transfer could go ahead sometime next week, with Juventus president Andrea Agnelli and Lazio president Claudio Lotito expected to hold a meeting to discuss the move.

The report also states that the Bianconeri have offered Angelo Ogbonna and Sebastian Giovinco as part of the deal, and the latter’s agent has already held meetings with Lazio representatives.

It is also worth mentioning that Candreva spent six months on loan at the Bianconeri in 2010, but Juventus opted not to sign the player on a permanent deal.
