Juventus will point to Chris Smalling of Manchester United and is in a position to offer Federico Bernardeschi an exchange.
The defender has spent the last year in Italy with Rome, where he has inspired and is about to return to Old Trafford.
The Italian aspect is willing to stay with the 30-year-old permanently, but has not reached an agreement on a payment with United that can open the door for Juventus.
Smalling will return to England this week after Roma failed to extend his loan to allow him to participate in his Europa League campaign.
But The Serie A champions are now in a position to bid on United, Says Calciomercato, and expect to diminish the value of applications by adding Bernardeschi.
United is for a striker who targets Jadon Sancho even though he asks for a hundred million pounds.
If they fail to do so, the 26-year-old can be considered a credible option, as it would also allow Mason Greenwood to continue his development.
Juventus have a lot of quality defenders, many of them are reaching the twilight of their careers.
Leonardo Bonucci and Giorgio Chiellini are well into thirties and the bianconeri already have to look at the next generation after signing Matthijs from Ligt last summer.
Smalling could be one of the toughest defences in Europe if he was tempted to move to Turin.
The Englishman has received rave reviews from Roma coach Paulo Fonseca, who says the defender will remain in Italy.
“I will do everything I can to keep him in Rome next year,” he said in May. “I know he’ll stay, let’s see what happens.
“He is a man, so humble, so professional. He is adored by enthusiasts and has established himself as one of the leaders in the locker room.
“It’s not easy for English power plants to adapt so temporarily to Italian football, the record is not good. But it’s unbelievable.”
