Juventus general director Giuseppe Marotta has assured fans of the club that the Bianconeri will spend the last day of the transfer window in search of a striker.

The Serie A champions have just three recognised senior strikers in the current squad, but Marotta insists that the club management have prioritised the reinforcement of the attacking department before the transfer window’s end on Monday.

“There is still some uncertainty about the immediate future”, admitted the Italian to Sky Sport Italia.

“One day left at the end of the market, we are evaluating opportunities and decisions internally, such as Sebastian Giovinco.”

Speaking of replacements for Giovinco, who is widely expected to have his move to Major League Soccer side Toronto FC brought forward to this window, Marotta had a name in mind.

“Pablo Osvaldo? We will certainly replace Giovinco but the decision will be tomorrow.”
