Juventus director Giovanni Manna is set to be in London this week, trying to sell Denis Zakaria to West Ham United and sign Timothy Castagne from Leicester City.
According to Calciomercato.com, the transfer chief has a flight booked and will be in London on Thursday for a series of meetings.
The primary aim is to find a buyer for Zakaria, who just returned from a loan spell at Chelsea when the club did not activate its option to buy at the end of the season.
West Ham are the favourites, with interest also from Bournemouth, Lens and LOSC.
The asking price is €20m and the best offer so far from the Hammers remains €15m plus add-ons, so they hope this face-to-face meeting can help bridge that gap.
Manna’s other priority is to secure Castagne, who is eager to return to Serie A after his experience with Atalanta and the fact Leicester City were relegated from the Premier League.
Here too, the asking price is €15m and the player has already agreed terms with Juve, but they hope to whittle down the fee perhaps by making it a loan with option to buy.
