The transfer winds are rising again as Serie A giants Juventus are digging deeper into their defense as they march through the winter transfer window. According to transfer guru Di Marzio, Chelsea defender Diezassi has become a key figure on Juventus' reinforcement list.
Juventus' center back position has been overstretched due to the injuries of Bremer and Kaval, and they are in dire need of reinforcements to solidify their defense. For this reason, Juventus management has been busy in the transfer market, trying to find the players they want in the winter.
In addition to the already rumored Antonio Silva (who will be in the spotlight this Sunday with a meeting with Benfica's agent) and Araujo, Chelsea's Di Sassi has also come into Juventus' sights. The French starlet, who is flexible in his on-field position, can play in the center of the field as well as on the wings, showing amazing versatility.
Chelsea are reportedly open to a loan offer for Di Sassi and could tie the terms of the loan to the number of appearances. This would be a big plus for Juventus, who could assess Di Sassi's ability on a short-term loan at a lower cost before deciding whether to make a long-term investment.
Juventus sees Di Sassi as a potential second center back target in the winter transfer window, which highlights their determination to strengthen their defense. In the next transfer window, Juventus management will go all out to try to complete the reinforcements in a short period of time, so as to be well-prepared for the battle in the second half of the season.
