Juventus have reportedly opened talks with Schalke 04 midfielder Leon Goretzka, while Claudio Marchisio is said to have become frustrated after falling out of favour under Massimiliano Allegri.
Goretzka's contract expires at the end of the season, and Juve are in negotiations to sign him on a free transfer, according to Tuttosport (h/t Kaustubh Pandey at Calciomercato.com).
Bayern Munich, Barcelona and Liverpool also want the Germany international, but Juventus may be in pole position, having made an early move to land the 22-year-old.
Schalke sporting director Christian Heidel recently told Sky Germany his club has tried everything it can to keep hold of Goretzka and that it "can't do anything else" (h/t Sport).
