The agents of Paris Saint-Germain midfielder Fabian Ruiz visited Juventus’ Continassa training ground this week, just weeks before the January transfer window.
It’s no secret that the Bianconeri are desperately looking for midfield reinforcements for the new year, needing to bolster the middle of the pitch after Nicolo Fagioli’s betting ban and Paul Pogba’s doping case.
Juventus director Cristiano Giuntoli has drawn up a long list of possible options to strengthen Massimiliano Allegri’s midfield in the January transfer window, aware that work needs to be done.
Page eight of today’s Tuttosport details how Fabian Ruiz’s agents Miguel Alfaro and Alessandro Favero were spotted in the streets of Turin and visited Juventus’ training centre in Continassa this week.
The 27-year-old Spaniard has struggled to show his best in France following his move to PSG last year and is valued at around €25-30m.
Giuntoli knows Fabian Ruiz well from their time together at Napoli and the director could use this positive relationship to try and set up a deal.
