Juventus are all set to hand Alexis Sanchez's footballing career another lifeline by signing him in this summer.

Calcio Mercato have reported that Juventus are very much keen regarding the deal but the only problem being the Chilean earning net €20 million per season in England as per his ongoing Manchester United contract, and the Italians will not be looking to invest those many funds in the player, having already paying big bucks to the likes of Cristiano Ronaldo, Paulo Dybala and Emre Can in their squad.

Alexis has not had a very great stint at Old Trafford since his arrival from Arsenal 2 years back.

According to reports from Calcio Mercato, Brazilian striker Richarlison has a huge fan in Italy and it is none other than AC Milan director Leonardo.

Although Richarlison's agent has informed Milan about Everton's disinterest in selling Richarlison this summer, a bid in the range of €65-70 million can change the English club's mind.

The striker's value has shot up overnight due to his recent call ups from the Brazilian National team in 2018, and his exquisite performances when he was given his opportunity in the international friendlies.

AC Milan was close to buying the striker from his previous club Fluminense, but the previous management was not able to complete the deal, and current director Leonardo must surely be regretting that decision now.

Football.London have reported that Tottenham are all set to land Inter Milan midfielder Matias Vecino this summer, after having scouted him for some time now.

Fortunately for the English club, the Italian club is ready to listen to offers starting at around €30 million.

The only obstacle in the deal will be the fact that the player will be turning 28 this year, and Tottenham have a long-lasting policy of signing young players who can be developed by manager Mauricio Pochettino, who has done the same in the past with players like Eric Dier, Dele Alli, and Toby Alderweireld.
