Juventus will reportedly only go for Bayern Munich defender Medhi Benatia if it’s a loan with option to buy.

The former Roma defender is valued at around €20m by the German club, but he’s eager to move on in order to get more playing time.

According to Tuttosport newspaper, the Bianconeri are not willing to buy Benatia outright because of concerns around his fitness levels.

The 29-year-old had a series of injury problems this season and made only 14 Bundesliga appearances.
