Juventus will look to bolster their defence in January, primarily by signing Daniele Rugani from Empoli.
The Serie A leaders are without Martin Caceres and Andrea Barzagli for the next couple of months, and Rugani has been in excellent form which resulted in a call up to Antonio Conte’s most recent Italy squad.
According to Gazzetta dello Sport, Rugani would be an easier signing than most alternatives as he is co-owned by the Bianconeri with 13th-placed Empoli- where Rugani has come through the youth ranks.
Lille’s Simon Kjaer, Jose Giminez of Atletico Madrid, Fiorentina’s Stefan Savic, and Matija Nastasic, currently injured for Manchester City, are all options for Juventus but their availability remains questionable.
Furthermore, if Sebastian Giovinco is sold, Masimilliano Allegri’s side could look to bring in Sassuolo’s Simone Zaza or 20-year-old Domenico Berardi as attacking reinforcements.
