Juventus linked with a move for Juan Bernat
Juventus are planning a move for Juan Bernat.
The reports in Italy suggested that Juventus are linked with a move for Bayern Munich left-back Juan Bernat.
The 25-year-old has been subject to interest from various European clubs.
The Spain international was signed by Bayern Munich in July 2014 from Valencia for a fee of 10 million euros. The 25-year-old has a contract until 2019 with the club.
Bernat has played 109 times for Bayern Munich since signing from Valencia, scoring five goals and creating eight assists in that time.
The 25-year-old is considered to be one of the best left-back s in Spain.
Juan Bernat has represented Spain at Under-17, Under-19, Under-20 and Under-21 level, winning 29 caps and scoring five goals, before making his senior international debut in October 2014. As a member of Spain national football team, Bernat won 7 caps and he scored one goal.
The 25-year-old is one of the more likely players to be offloaded by Bayern Munich this summer and the list of suitors in the Spain international continues to grow.
Juventus are in the market for a new left-back when the transfer window reopens.
The Italian champions have built a reputation for recruiting young talent from within Europe, predominantly targeting those with sell-on value and immense potential.
According to Football Italia (via Tuttosport), “Juventus could reportedly sign Juan Bernat from Bayern Munich this summer, as the German giants target Jonas Hector. Kwadwo Asamoah looks set to leave the Bianconeri at the end of this season, while Alex Sandro could be sold. While Leonardo Spinazzola looks set to return from Atalanta, Juve still need reinforcements on the left flank. According to today’s Tuttosport, a deal for Bernat is possible, as he’s been told he has no future in Bavaria.”

Bayern Munich are preparing to sell their left-back should they receive a right offer for him.
Juan Bernat is also being watched by Everton.
A move away from Bayern will not be only the best move for Bernat, but also for the club.
How strong that interest is and whether Juventus will make a move remains to be seen but it is certainly one worth keeping an eye on.
