Juventus have turned their attention to Lyon attacking midfielder Nabil Fekir following Julian Draxler’s €36 million transfer from Schalke to Wolfsburg.

The 22-year-old France international playmaker has been identified by Bianconeri coach Massimiliano Allegri after the club missed out on the signature of Draxler despite being linked with a move for the German forward since the opening of the current transfer window.

According to TuttoMercatoWeb, Allegri will try to push through a deal for the talented forward before the transfer window shuts on Monday, however, if a deal cannot be reached, Juventus will return for the player’s signature in January.

Fekir has scored 18 goals during 49 appearances for Les Gones since making his debut in 2013 and was linked with a move to the The Old Lady’s Serie A rivals Inter earlier this year.
