Pjanic just turned 28 last month and is under contract with Juve until June 2021, having joined in 2016 when they activated the €32m release clause in his Roma contract.

He speaks several languages fluently and had played for Olympique Lyonnais before moving to Roma in 2011.

The price-tag will be upwards of €65m if the Bianconeri are prepared to let him leave.
