Torino and Juventus are in a Derby della Mole on the transfer market for Sevilla left-back Marcos Acuna.
Tuttosport are confident the Granata have been tracking him for some time and are therefore at a more advanced stage of the negotiations.
However, should Juve come knocking as reported by Sportitalia, then the situation would change significantly.
The Bianconeri see Acuna as a potential replacement for Alex Sandro, who is being urged to seek other destinations this summer.
Acuna is 31 years old and has 53 senior caps for Argentina under his belt.
His contract with Sevilla runs to June 2025 and he joined them from Sporting CP at a cost of €11.25m in September 2020.
The left-back made 45 competitive appearances for the Spanish side this season, contributing three goals and four assists.
Whether he joins Torino or Juventus, it would be a first Serie A experience for the player, who can also cover more attacking roles down the left flank.
