Juventus are interested in Spanish midfielder Gonzalo Villar, according to calciomercato.it. The Roma player hasn’t been in the plans of coach Jose Mourinho and could move to a new club.
Villar featured regularly under ex-coach Fonseca. He played 47 matches for the Giallorossi last season, in which he gave one assist. Villar has only managed to play in 5 matches this season. Juve see Villar as a good alternative to Ramsey, who could leave in January. The Bianconeri also want to focus on younger players in their project. Villar fits that discription, as he is only 23 years old.
Roma put a price-tag of €15.00M on Villar. Roma’s General Manager Tiago Pinto favors offers from outside Italy, so a deal with Juventus is unlikely.
