Sky Sport Italia claims Juventus have a little sum available to sign a new central midfielder in the January transfer window thanks to Moise Kean’s loan move to Atletico Madrid.

Kean has undergone his medical examinations with Atletico today and will finalise a paid loan deal until the end of the season.

Juventus will get €500,000 and save money from the player’s salary for the second part of the campaign so, according to Sky Sport Italia‘s Gianluca Di Marzio, they have a reduced transfer budget available to sign a new central midfielder in the last few days of the January transfer window.

According to Ilbianconero.com, Arsenal‘s Thomas Partey and Tottenham’s Pierre-Emile Højbjerg remain on the Bianconeri’s radars alongside Federico Bernardeschi who is seen as the ‘most realistic option’ if Juventus decide to get midfielder reinforcement this month.

Juventus are long-time admirers of both Partey and Højbjerg who has rejected a move to Lyon. According to the report, the Bianconeri’s chances of getting Partey will increase in the next few days if Arsenal sign a new defensive midfielder.
