The 29-year-old winger is currently in the final months of his contract with Real Madrid and is all set to become a free agent in the summer. Vazquez has been at Real Madrid since 2007 but the time may have finally come for him to leave the Spanish capital.

Rodrigo Bentancur has been hyped up as one of the players for the future at Juventus. Bentancur was so impressive in the 2019-20 season that he even displaced Miralem Pjanic from the first team for a while.

However, the Uruguayan has not covered himself in glory this season and came under fire recently for being at fault for Porto's opening goal in the first leg of Juventus' Round of 16 tie, which they ultimately lost.

La Gazzetta dello Sport (via ilBianconero) claims that Bentancur is no longer seen as untouchable at Juventus. The club will be open to listening to offers for the Uruguayan and have set an asking price of €25 million for the 23-year-old.

Juventus scoured the transfer market in the January transfer window to sign a backup striker to Alvaro Morata. Their search for an additional striker has brought them to Paris and the Bianconeri are now looking at the possibility of signing Mauro Icardi and Moise Kean, as per Calciomercato (via ilBianconero).

Moise Kean is currently at Paris Saint-Germain on loan from Premier League side Everton. The report claims that although there is no option to buy in Kean's loan deal, the Parisiens will pursue a permanent deal for the Italian.

If they are successful in their efforts to make Moise Kean's deal permanent, then Paris Saint-Germain will be open to listening to offers for Mauro Icardi.
