“Having said that, there are some issues that need to be confronted and based on those discussions we’ll see what happens.”
Marotta was also asked about reports of a bid for Barcelona talent Alexis Sanchez.
"Sanchez is a great player who every top club would like, so clearly Juventus would also love to have him, but we must take into account he is also a very expensive player."
