Juventus are reportedly looking to land Paris Saint-Germain forward Ezequiel Lavezzi ahead of the 2014-15 campaign.

The 29-year-old, who played in the Serie A for Napoli from 2007-12 before joining the French giants, has been linked with moves to Chelsea and AC Milan in recent weeks, though it seems the Bianconeri are preparing to make a serious offer for his services.

According to Sport Mediaset, new Juventus boss Massimiliano Allegri is keen on adding a forward who can play on the wings to his squad and sees the Argentina international as one of the top candidates to fill the position.

Lavezzi arrived at PSG from the Partenopei for a reported fee of around €30 million in 2012 and has scored a total of 12 goals in his 60 Ligue 1 appearances for the Parisians thus far.

The forward also represented Argentina at this summer’s World Cup in Brazil and provided one assist in his six appearances for his country at the tournament.
