According to Il Corriere dello Sport, Juventus consider a January move for Sandro Tonali and could sell Nicolò Fagioli and Kenan Yildiz to match Newcastle’s €55m asking price.

The Bianconeri are looking for midfield reinforcements but would need to sell some of their players to match Newcastle’s asking price.

It is no secret that Juventus are ready to listen to offers for Fagioli in the January transfer window, but according to the report, the Old Lady is now considering Yildiz’s sale as well.

The Turkish talent has attracted interest from European clubs and a sale for €35-40m would allow the Bianconeri to make a substantial capital gain, given that the 19-year-old is a product of their academy, just like Fagioli.

Juventus also need to sign a new centre-back in January and according to Corriere dello Sport, club directors ‘seriously’ discussed PSG’s Milan Skriniar during their latest transfer meeting.
