There Juventus has set his sights on the strikerIpswich Liam Delap as a potential replacement for Dusan Vlahovic: the Mirror in England writes it. The Old Lady remains determined to want to extend the contract of their centre-forward, but so far the talks for an extension have not borne fruit.
Here is the reason why Juve is apparently developing an emergency plan in case an agreement cannot be reached: according to the British tabloid the Bianconeri are great admirers of the former star of the youth sector of the Manchester CityDelap. So much so that they sent scouts to Portman Road last weekend to watch the 21-year-old in the flesh against Manchester United .
If Vlahovic fails to find a new deal by the end of the season, he could be sold next summer, to avoid the risk of losing the former Fiorentina striker on a free transfer.
There is no shortage of competition. Chelsea and United are also monitoring Delap’s progress, while City have a buy-back clause and also negotiated a 20% buy-back when they sold the striker to Ipswich for £20 million in July.
