Juventus from trying to lure midfielder Nemanja Matic to Turin as he looks to keep him.

The Bianconeri have made it no secret that they wish to use the 28-year-old as a replacement for newly departed Paul Pogba, with the aim of further strengthening their midfield ranks.

As reported by La Gazzetta dello Sport, Juventus sporting director Giuseppe Marotta is prepared to shell out €30 million in order to secure the services of the former Benfica player.

Moreover, although Conte has deemed the Serbian to be unsellable, Matic has refused to rule out a move away from the West London side and is keeping his options open.

Matic has made a total of 86 appearances for the Blues and was a key cog in the team’s midfield during their capture of the Premier League title in the 2014-2015 season under Jose Mourinho.
