Tuttosport newspaper reports that Juventus are already preparing for two possible summer signings as Karim Adeyemi and David Hancko are high on the Bianconeri’s agenda for next summer.

Juventus signed four new players in the January transfer window, but Tuttosport newspaper reports that director Cristiano Giuntoli has already started working for new additions in the summer.

The Bianconeri have been following Adeyemi for several months and opened informal talks with the player’s entourage and Borussia Dortmund during the winter transfer window.

Napoli and Chelsea were also among the clubs interested in the German winger, who snubbed a move to the Stadio Maradona, as confirmed by Partenopei director Giovanni Manna.

According to Tuttosport, Borussia Dortmund had accepted a €45m bid from the Partenopei and Adeyemi will be available for the same fee at the end of the season.

Chelsea remain interested in the 23-year-old, but according to Tuttosport, the Bianconeri are confident that a good relationship with the player’s entourage will help them in negotiations at the end of the season.

Feyenoord defender Hancko is another long-time target at the Allianz Stadium. The Bianconeri could not convince the Dutch side to sell the ex-Fiorentina defender in January but are already considering submitting a €30m bid in June.

Tuttosport, however, warns that Juventus’ firepower in the summer transfer window will depend on whether the Bianconeri will qualify for the Champions League this season.
