Angel Di Maria and Nicolò Zaniolo are on Juventus‘ radars, but the Old Lady will only pick one of them, reports Tuttosport.
Juventus need to replace Paulo Dybala and probably Federico Bernardeschi, who is unlikely to extend his expiring contract at the Allianz Stadium.
Di Maria and Zaniolo are among their targets, but the Old Lady will pick just one of them. On paper, the Bianconeri would prioritise the Italy international, one of the most exciting talents in the country.
However, Roma‘s asking price makes it hard for the Bianconeri to secure his services. According to Tuttosport, Roma want €40-45m plus add-ons, but Gazzetta and Corriere dello Sport reported over the last few weeks that the Giallorossi could even ask for €60-70m.
That’s why the Serie A giants haven’t ruled out signing Di Maria who, like Zaniolo, can play as a winger or as an attacking midfielder. The Argentinean star is available as a free agent in June and Juventus would offer him a short deal (one or two years). Di Maria earns more than Zaniolo, but his signing would be cheaper as Juventus would only pay agent fees to secure his signature.
