Juventus have identified Chelsea playmaker Oscar as their main summer target, reportedly at the request of their manager, Massimiliano Allegri.
The Old Lady sit top of Serie A and are still going strong in this season’s Champions’ League and, as such, has won the favour of the club’s board.
With intensifying interest in star midfielder Paul Pogba, and the team’s desire to re-establish themselves as a force in European force, Oscar has been suggested by Allegri as the first step to both replacing Pogba and re-finding some of the fear that their name once carried.
Despite being a key member of Mourinho’s squad, Oscar has had an uninspiring season and could be available for £30million come the summer.
