Juventus chief to 'fly to London for transfer talks with Arsenal and Wolves' over Alexandre Lacazette and Raul Jimenez

JUVENTUS transfer chief Fabio Paratici is reportedly jetting into London in a bid to sign Alexandre Lacazette or Raul Jimenez.

Bolstering their frontline is thought to be a key area for the Old Lady this summer with the chief football officer heading to England with goals on his mind.


According to La Stampa, via TuttoMercatoWeb, Lacazette is the primary target for Juventus.

The 29-year-old has emerged as a candidate for the Serie A champions across the Italian media with certain outlets detailing a potential swap deal.

Gonzalo Higuain, Douglas Costa or Cristian Romero are all reportedly on the table should Arsenal be content with an exchange proposal.

A price tag of around £30million is thought to be placed on the Frenchman's head after 12 goals last season.

Should Arsenal keep hold of their man, amid Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang's future also being sorted, Juve have another Premier League forward in mind.

Raul Jimenez is also named as a player Paratici will seek talks over.

Manchester United were linked with the Mexican during Wolves' monster campaign, which saw him smash 27 goals in 55 appearances.

At 29, Jimenez has previously opened the door to a potential return to LaLiga but is yet to play in Italy.

Finally, Juventus are also reportedly set for talks with Roma over Nicolo Zaniolo.

The young attacking midfielder is back from a long-term injury having made a sensational start to life in the capital and is said to want a move away from the Stadio Olimpico.
