Juventus has not given up its search for a regista: the Bianconeri are scouring the market for the right opportunity to satisfy coach Luciano Spalletti, who has been asking for a man of order to set the pace in midfield since he arrived. The Tuscan coach considers a purchase in that role crucial to make the leap forward in midfield and get back into contention for the Scudetto. According to reports in Corriere della Sera, the Turin club&#8217s market men have several names on the table: among them is Pierre Hojbjerg, a midfielder from De Zerbi&#8217s Marseille class of 1995.

The Danish national player has long been a special observer of the Old Lady: he responds to Spalletti&#8217s identikit of a high-performing and experienced player, capable of both interdicting and setting up the action with quality. Getting to the player, however, is complicated: OM does not want to give up mid-season and has demanded a high price for his tag, more than 50 million euros, currently out of reach for the Bianconeri coffers unless a simultaneous luxury sale takes place. The Turin club is thus looking for low-cost alternatives, and among them the name of former Inter player Marcelo Brozovic has been mentioned.

The Croatian midfielder, who has been in Saudi Arabia for more than two years at Cristiano Ronaldo’s Al Nassr, has a contract that expires next June 30, and he could be released six months early to return to Italy. The former Nerazzurri has already earned more than 50 million euros in salary in Arabia and seems determined to return to end his career in Europe. With Al-Nassr he played more than 100 games, netting 20 assists but without winning any trophies. Juve has two doubts: the player&#8217s recruitment and his athletic fitness, considering that he has played only in the Middle East in recent years.

The’other sensational name is that of Marco Verratti, who is about to leave Qatar. The former PSG player wants to return to Europe: there is talk of possibly ending his career at Pescara, the team of his heart that launched him into the soccer that counts and of which he is a shareholder, but from Argentina they report contact with Boca Juniors. And on the player there would thus also be Juventus, which had brushed up against him years ago, before his move to Paris.
