Juventus are set for talks with FC Porto over the future of full back Alex Sandro.

The Italian champions are on the lookout for a long term successor to Patrice Evra. At 24-years-old Alex Sandro looks to be the preferred option to eventually replace the 34-year-old Frenchman.

According to Gazzetta dello Sport, Juventus officials will travel to Porto within the next 72 hours to discuss terms for the Brazilian’s transfer.

The player has a release clause of €50 million, but his contract is due to expire in 2016 and it is thought that a proposal in the region of €13m will be enough to convince the Portuguese club to part with their man.

Juventus have been very active on the transfer market this summer, having already signed Paulo Dybala, Sami Khedira, Mario Mandzukic, Neto, Simone Zaza and Guido Vadala.

They have also lost several key players such as Andrea Pirlo, Carlos Tevez and Angelo Ogbonna, and are reportedly on the verge of selling Arturo Vidal to Bayern Munich.
