Juventus are in the market for just a handful of statement signings this summer who can improve the first-team.

According to the report in Italian Media, Strootman’s contract carries a buyout clause in the region of 45 million euros and Juventus are prepared to match it.

Kevin Strootman would reportedly be interested in a move this summer, but if Juventus do want him, they will have to beat those other interested clubs to his signature.
