Juve: Alexis Sanchez or Keita?
By Football Italia staff
With Alvaro Morata returning to Real Madrid, Juventus are targeting Arsenal’s Alexis Sanchez or Keita Balde Diao from Lazio.
As Edinson Cavani and Romelu Lukaku are too expensive, Sky Sport Italia claim the primary option is Sanchez.
The Chile international has already been linked with Juve many times over the years, including when he left Udinese for Barcelona and again for his transfer to Arsenal.
Sanchez is still only 27 years old, but frustrated at the lack of silverware at Arsenal.
His price-tag is believed to be around €55m, so Juve already have €30m from Real Madrid buying back Morata.
They hope to further lower the price by including players in an exchange with Arsenal.
Another cheaper option is Lazio youngster Keita Balde Diao, who has been recently heavily linked with Real Madrid and Barcelona.
The 21-year-old Senegal international certainly has talent, but is currently a diamond in the rough and Max Allegri would appreciate the chance to hone him.
Keita can play on the left, right or as an unpredictable centre-forward, so brings tactical versatility.
At €10m, he’d be considerably cheaper, but not the finished article the way Alexis Sanchez is.
