#3 Miralem Pjanic
Barely a year after Miralem Pjanic joined Barcelona in a swap deal with Arthur Melo, the Bosnia and Herzegovina international may be returning to Juventus in no time.
Since his arrival at Camp Nou, Pjanic has failed to nail a spot in Barcelona's starting XI, starting just six out of 36 La Liga games. The 31-year-old will be offered the chance to leave Ronald Koeman's team, but for him to join Juventus, the midfielder will have to lower his salary demands.
Speaking about his situation at Barcelona, Pjanic said,
"I have played at all the clubs I've been at and with all the coaches I've had. A situation like this has never happened to me. Of course it's not easy, I accept it with great difficulty."
During his time at Turin, Pjanic was a key player in Allegri's team. With the latter now back in charge at Juventus, he might be keen to reunite with his manager.
#2 Antoine Griezmann
L'Equipe (via GFFN) claim Antoine Griezmann could join Juventus as part of a swap deal between Barcelona and the Serie A club, with Paulo Dybala potentially heading in the opposite direction.
Additionally, with Ronaldo's future at Turin up in the air, Griezmann is seen as a possible replacement for the four-time Ballon d'Or winner.
Although Griezmann only joined Barcelona in 2019, the 30-year-old French forward has struggled to impress at Camp Nou. In 99 appearances for Barca, the forward has scored 35 times and recorded 17 assists. Coupled with his massive wages, Barcelona are finding ways to offload him this summer, with Juventus being a viable destination.
Koeman has refused to confirm Griezmann will stay at Barca beyond this summer. The manager said:
"Griezmann is very important for me. He's been a great signing for Barcelona and has shown his quality. He's performed well and is a very good player. But I insist, I don't know which decisions will be made."
#1 Manuel Locatelli
Both Juventus and Arsenal are interested in signing Manuel Locatelli this summer, but the player's priority is reportedly to join the Bianconeri rather than the Gunners.
At the moment, Sassuolo are demanding €40 million for the Italian midfielder, which Arsenal are ready to match. On the other hand, Juventus offered €30 million loan offer with an obligation to buy next season, but their offer has been rejected by Sassuolo.
With Locatelli preferring to play in the UEFA Champions League and to stay in Serie A, joining Juventus would be the better option as compared to Arsenal. However, tight finances mean that Allegri might find it difficult to bring the Euro 2020 winner on board this summer.
Locatelli played a vital role for Italy at the Euros, scoring two goals in five appearances. He also starred in the final where the Azzuri beat England on penalties.
Since making his senior debut in 2016, Locatelli has racked up 144 Serie A appearances, netting eight goals and providing 11 assists in the process. If Locatelli joins Juventus, his ability to play either as a box-to-box midfielder or as a defensive midfielder will benefit the club.
