Juventus are could move for Sampdoria’s Manolo Gabbiadini with reports suggesting that a potential move could materialize in the second half of August.

Gabbiadini impressed last season with Sampdoria as he scored eight goals in 34 appearances and the two clubs had extended the striker’s co-ownership deal for another season in June.

Having missed out ontargets Romelu Lukaku and Dani Osvaldo, Tuttosport reports that the Bianconeri are going to resume their pursuit of the 22-year-old striker after Sampdoria had earlier refused an exchange involving Sebastian Giovinco due to the diminutive striker’s high wages.

As a result the Bianconeri are reportedly willing to offer 19-year-old striker Valerio Rosseti as part of an exchange deal for the Blucerchiati forward .

Gabbiadini has made one appearance for the Italian national team after starring for the Under 21 side from 2010 to 2013.
