"Juventus" will try to acquire A. Martial

"Juventus" is hoping to attract "Manchester United" winger Anthony Martial this summer, as reported by the Italian football portal "Calciomercato".

The Italian champions hope to reach a similar deal as they did last year with Bayern Munich, when they acquired Douglas Costa for a reasonable sum of 40 million euros.

However, in order to secure the Frenchman's signature, they will have to compete with both Bayern and Chelsea, who are also monitoring the 22-year-old player's situation in England.

Under Jose Mourinho's leadership, Martial has lost his place in the main lineup of the "Red Devils", and his playing time has been further reduced since the arrival of Alexis Sanchez during the winter transfer window.

Throughout the season, the former Monaco forward played in 43 matches, scored 11 goals, and provided 10 assists. Despite not having the worst statistics, Martial only started in the lineup 26 times.
