Tuttosport: ‘Tomori in Arabia’ – Juventus plan to open talks over January deal | OneFootball

Another report has claimed that Fikayo Tomori is a target for Juventus, who could use the Supercoppa Italiana to speak with AC Milan.

Juventus are struggling in the centre-back department with both Juan Cabal and Gleison Bremer out for a long while due to ligament injuries. Other selection issues have seen Thiago Motta scrambling around for makeshift replacements.

Thus, Juve are looking at reinforcements ahead of next month. As per Tuttosport (via MilanNews), they could take advantage of the Supercppa in Saudi Arabia to also talk about the mercato and in particular about Tomori.

After having concluded the Pierre Kalulu operation in the summer – who has become a starter under Motta – the Bianconeri and the Rossoneri could also talk about another central defender who is not part of Paulo Fonseca’s plans.

Tomori is described as the ‘most intriguing solution’ to reinforce the Juventus defence, even though he has fallen to the bottom of the pecking order at Milan, or so it seems at the moment. Cristiano Giuntoli is ready to open talks with Geoffrey Moncada early next month in the Middle East.

As a reminder, the Supercoppa Italiana semi-final between Juventus and Milan to be played on January 3. The paper also adds that if Danilo leaves two centre-backs will be needed for Juve, who might turn to Benfica’s António Silva on loan.
