Juventus midfielder Mario Lemina could leave the current Serie A champions, with a potential move to Stoke City on the horizon.

Lemina was targeted by English Premier League champions Leicester City earlier in the transfer window before they switched targets, but fellow English club Stoke are interested in the services of the 22-year-old.

According to reports in The Guardian, Potters boss Mark Hughes is ready to submit a bid of €15 million for Lemina, who only joined the Bianconeri on a permanent basis in April this year.

He had spent the earlier part of the season on loan from French club Marseille, but signed a permanent contract worth around €9m to keep him at the Serie A side until 2020.

It is likely he could terminate his contract early, however, but Juventus are unlikely to let him go for any less thn €20m.
