Report: Juventus are targeting Alexis Mac Allister who wants Juventus.

According to Gazzetta Dello Sports Marco Guidi  “Mac Allister wants Juventus. Already followed in recent months, the 24-year-old midfielder bewitched Massimiliano Allegri with his performances in Qatar, where he became world champion with Argentina. And the people closest to the footballer now let it be known that the interest is reciprocated in a big way. Mac Allister deems Juve an “extraordinary” team and, when an offer capable of satisfying Brighton arrives, the black and white team would be a more than welcome destination.”

This news comes one hour after our student journalist and writer for maxstatman.com Jurre van Wanrooij reported on the @ForzaJuveEN twitter account that Nico Schira had told him that “Alexis Mac Allister is a Juventus target. He is a target being monitored, no talks opened yet but Chelsea are leading the race.”

So according to Nico, Chelsea lead the way. But Marco Guidii would go on to say of Mac Allister who some consider the best player at this years FIFA World Cup behind player of the tournament Lionel Messi that, Alexis really likes Juventus and has expressed that he is fond of the Italian club to his family. In the event of Weston McKennie move, Juve could make an attempt for him. 

He also added for Juve Mac Allister the has jumped ahead of SMS,  although dealing with Brighton in the past has been proven difficult for teams. He likes Juve which is a good sign.
