Champions of Italy, Juventus are reportedly targeting a whole bunch of players come the January transfer window.

Following a long term lay off for new signing Alvaro Morata, coach Massimiliano Allegri will necessarily target a striker in January, with many sources stating it to be Aston Villa’s Christian Benteke.

And despite Benteke being injury prone as well, he has a far better goal scoring record than Morata and the Juventus boss would consider looking into it whilst making an sizeable offer for the Belgian.

And according to www.tuttomercatoweb.com, the Bianconeri are also likely to make a move for Manchester City centre-back Matija Nastasic and Manchester United wing-back Antonio Valencia.

Nastasic might find opportunities limited at Manchester this season, as the club signed Eliaquim Mangala from Porto in the summer. Therefore, the 21-year-old Serb could force a move back to Italy in the next transfer window.

The Old Lady were not very active in the summer transfer window, with only three major signings in Morata for €20 million, Patrice Evra from the Red Devils and Kingsley Coman from Paris Saint-Germain as free agents.
