Luis Suarez's Barcelona adventure seems to be reaching its climax, with the striker edging closer to terminating his contract with the club. Hailed as one of the best attackers of his generation, the former Liverpool man still possesses the quality to score goals consistently at the highest level and was amongst the candidates considered by Juventus.

However, the Bianconeri pulled the plug on the deal earlier this week, as Suarez failed to get himself Italian citizenship. With Barcelona desperate to move him on this summer, the Uruguayan striker is currently holding talks with fellow La Liga side Atletico Madrid and could well seal a sensational move to the Wanda Metropolitano.

While Juventus categorically denied that they will not be making a move for Suarez, the situation could change if he manages to secure Italian citizenship in the coming weeks. As things stand, however, he looks set to join Diego Simeone's team this summer.


#2 Edin Dzeko | Roma

Roma striker Edin Dzeko is reportedly a top target for Juventus this summer. Reports emerged last week that the Bianconeri has agreed a deal for the Bosnian striker, with the club waiting for Roma to sign a replacement for him before sanctioning the deal.

However, Roma have been locked in talks with Napoli for Arkadiusz Milik and have thus far been unable to snap him up. Dzeko is patiently waiting to see if he can secure an unexpected move to the Allianz Stadium, having previously represented the likes of Wolfsburg, Manchester City and Roma.

The towering striker is a lot more than a target man and has proved that he can score all kinds of goals. Renowned for his hold up play and heading prowess, Dzeko's linkup play is an underrated aspect of his game and comes with loads of experience at the top level.

Juventus could well snap him up this summer if Roma sort out a deal for his replacement in the coming weeks.


#1 Alvaro Morata | Atletico Madrid

As things stand, Alvaro Morata looks likely to join Juventus, with the Spanish striker scheduled to have his medical imminently. Morata is no stranger to the Allianz Stadium, having enjoyed a fruitful loan spell with the club from Real Madrid a few years ago.

Having been teammates with Andrea Pirlo at the time, he could well become the focal point of the Italian's team in the coming weeks. Morata has played for several big clubs in his career so far and looks set to join the club on an initial loan deal, with Juventus retaining the option to sign him permanently for €45 million.

The 27-year-old enjoyed the best days of his career in Turin and will look to hit the ground running immediately if he signs for the club, having endured a mixed spell with Atletico Madrid since joining them from Chelsea.
