Juventus will reinvest the cash from Paul Pogba's sale into the signings of Sassuolo's Domenico Berardi, Roma's Miralem Pjanic, Valencia's Andre Gomes and one striker.

The sale of the French midfielder remains relatively uncertain, but the Bianconeri are planning for a team fit to compete in the Champions League even in his absence.

According to La Gazzetta dello Sport, Pogba's departure would kick off a number of important market operations, the first of which would be the €25m signing of Sassuolo's Berardi.

The Neroverde striker is believed to already have a deal with the Bianconeri and his purchase should be guaranteed, regardless of what happens with Pogba.

The Old Lady would then look to restructure the midfield by replacing the French 23-year-old with Pjanic and Gomes.

The Roma player appears increasingly likely to head to Turin, as the Gazzetta, the Corriere dello Sport and Tuttosport all confirm that the deal is imminent.

The Bianconeri's sporting director Beppe Marotta was in Rome yesterday, officially for a summit of the technical staff, but the presence in the city of Pjanic and his agent suggests there may have been a meeting between the two.

The sale of Pogba would also unlock a sufficient amount of capital for Juventus to try and buy Andres Gomes, whom Valencia price at €50-60m.

Finally, the Italians would look for a star striker. Paris Saint-Germain's Edinson Cavani remains at the top of the pecking order, but he costs €45m and his purchase might depend on the fate of Alvaro Morata, who could still remain or be sold. The alternatives are confirmed to be Liverpool's Christian Benteke, Everton's Romelu Lukaku and Olympique Marseille's Michy Batshuayi.
