Juventus could land Roma star Edin Dzeko this summer. The Bosnian has been a long-term target for the club, with the Bianconeri seeing a deal for the forward fall through in January.

According to La Republicca, via Football Italia, Roma's interest in Mauro Icardi has left the door open for Dzeko to depart the club this summer. Jose Mourinho is reportedly keen on having the Argentine striker lead the line for him next season and the club have already begun negotiations with his agent.

Dzeko has been prolific for Roma since joining them from Manchester City back in 2016. It remains to be seen whether Juventus will make an approach for the Bosnian this summer.

"Dybala's agent is expected in Turin in the next few days, everything will be resolved. Relations were not cold, we are on time."
