Juventus are being linked with a move for Lyon youngster Malo Gusto but face opposition from a number of European clubs. The Bianconeri will be losing the services of both Alex Sandro and Juan Cuadrado next year and have begun their search for new full-backs on both flanks who are able to play in a 3-5-2 or potential 3-4-1-2.
Turin based newspaper Tuttosport report that Malo Gusto is able to play in the right-back position that Juve need and has ‘technical qualities’ that have made him a prized target for a number of sides.
Lyon are not willing to part with the 19-year-old right-back for anything less that €15-20 million and for Juventus, who have been following him for some time, the upcoming transfer window could be the time to make a concerted bid.
The challenge the Bianconeri face is that a number of other super clubs are interested in the Frenchman, including Real Madrid and Barcelona, and the Premier League sides, Chelsea and Manchester United.
