Juventus are reportedly keeping a close eye on Felipe Anderson as his contract with Lazio continues to tick down.
The Bianconeri are looking to bolster Massimiliano Allegri’s attack in the coming months and are keen to pick up a new right winger, needing to fill the void left behind by Angel Di Maria’s exit in the summer.
Juventus have moved in a more sustainable direction since last season’s off-pitch chaos and sporting director Cristiano Giuntoli has been hard at work, working to find the right low-cost options in the transfer market.
As reported by Daniele Longo of Calciomercato.com, Lazio president Claudio Lotito has frozen contract talks with Felipe Anderson as he’s been unhappy with the winger’s performances this season.
The 30-year-old has scored just one goal and provided five assists in 20 appearances across all competitions, numbers that don’t convince the Biancocelesti owner.
Juventus director Giuntoli has been following Felipe Anderson’s situation for the last week or so and would be happy to pick up the winger on a free transfer next summer.
