Juventus are reportedly after the services of former Inter striker Samuel Eto’o.

Coach Massimiliano Allegri is keen to find a replacement for new signing Alvaro Morata who is likely to miss a large part of the season due to an injury that the Spanish player sustained last week.

According to Sky Sport Italia, Juve want a replacement for Morata, either on loan or on a short term contract and have been in contact with the 33-year-old’s representatives.

Eto’o, who did not have his contract at Chelsea renewed at the end of last season, would be likely to be offered a one year deal by Juventus, but it is unknown at the moment whether the Cameroonian forward would be open to a move to the Italian champions.

Eto’o was part of the famous Inter side of the 2009/10 season which won the treble under coach Jose Mourinho.
