Italian side chasing Romelu Lukaku
Juventus are reportedly set to join the hunt for Chelsea target and Everton star Romelu Lukaku.
It’s being reported that the Serie A champions have ‘fallen in love’ with the Belgian striker and want to take him away from Goodison Park.
It’s thought Juve have been watching him closely, and could make a move amongst speculation that Mario Mandzukic could be on his way out of the club and going to West Ham United.
Chelsea have been linked strongly with a move to re-sign Lukaku, but Juventus are set to step up their interest.
The 23-year old is set to cost big money after his performances in recent seasons, Chelsea tried to re-sign him in the summer but the Toffees wanted a fee of £65million.
