Medhi Benatia would prefer a return to Roma than a move to Juventus, but Bayern Munich won’t release him on loan.
Sky Sport Italia claim the Morocco international is eager for a Serie A comeback just two years after his €28m transfer.
While Juve are seeking reinforcements in defence, Roma are stepping up considerably following Luciano Spalletti’s warning the back line needed to be completely reconstructed.

Sky Sport Italia claim the Morocco international is eager for a Serie A comeback just two years after his €28m transfer.
While Juve are seeking reinforcements in defence, Roma are stepping up considerably following Luciano Spalletti’s warning the back line needed to be completely reconstructed.
There is a problem for both clubs, as Sky Sport Italia insist Bayern Munich will only sell Benatia definitively or on loan with mandatory option to buy.
As for the player himself, he seems more interested in a return to Roma rather than a move to Juventus.
He only wore the Giallorossi jersey for one season after leaving Udinese for €13.5m in July 2013.
His price-tag has dropped to around €18m after a series of injury concerns, which saw the 29-year-old make only 14 Bundesliga appearances this season.
