The young talent of "Manchester City" team Matija Nastasic has made it to the list of winter transfer window targets in Italy, as reported by "La Stampa".
According to the newspaper "La Stampa", M. Nastasic is one of the candidates to join "Juventus" this winter. The former defender of Fiorentina is a priority for "Juventus".
The 21-year-old player, who is not part of the plans of the "City" team coach Manuel Pellegrini, would cost the Italians 5 million euros. In the summer of 2012, Manchester club paid 15 million euros for the Serbian to the "Viola" team and transferred defender Stefano Savic's contract.
S. Savic is also mentioned as one of the possible candidates to wear the "Juventus" jersey. Recently, there have been reports in the press that the head coach of "Fiorentina", Vincenzo Montella, would like to see Sebastian Giovinco in his team. Giovinco's contract with "Juventus" expires next summer and is likely not to be extended, so there is a possibility that the clubs will start negotiations for player exchanges.
Among the less likely candidates are the names of Tottenham Hotspur and Galatasaray defenders Vlad Chiriches and Semih Kaya.
Last week, in an interview with the newspaper "Tuttosport", Juventus' general director Giuseppe Marotta did not deny rumors that the club is looking for a center-back to replace the injured Andrea Barzagli.
