Juventus plot summer move for Atletico Madrid defender

Juventus plot summer move for Atletico Madrid defender

According to what has been reported by Alfredo Pedulla of SportItalia, Juventus, although satisfied with Martin Caceres as a short term solution to their defensive woes, are looking at a different player for the summer.

The reports state that 28-year-old Stefan Savic, of Atletico Madrid, is a player highly sought after by Juventus, but that they will need to wait till the summer to make a move for him. 

Savic enters the last year of his contract come the summer and Juventus could use this to their advantage as they attempt to negotiate a deal for the former Manchester City defender. 

However, with Diego Godin heading out of Madrid to join Inter Milan on a free transfer, Atletico may be less keen on losing another defender and may, therefore, accelerate their track for extending Savic's current contract with Los Colchoneros.
