Juventus have a host of targets in the Bundesliga which they would like to acquire before the transfer deadline, including Julian Draxler, Henrikh Mkhitaryan and Ilkay Gundogan.

The Bianconeri have been searching all summer for a creative midfielder to replace the spark lost with the departure of Andrea Pirlo and Arturo Vidal.

According to La Gazzetta dello Sport, Juventus are prepared to offer €25 million to €30 million for Gundogan but are also keen on the Armenian Mkhitaryan.

Tuttosport claim, however, Draxler is still on Juventus’ mind as well as Mkhitaryan and that the Turin side hope to secure a deal this week.

Borussia Dortmund are unlikely to be willing to let either midfielders go. Gundogan has just signed a contract extension and Mkhitaryan has started the season in fine form with seven goals in four games.
