According to fresh reports in Serie A media, Juventus are keeping tabs on a Moroccan international star should they fail to sign Bernardo Silva from Manchester City.
Silva, who will leave on a free transfer at the end of the 2025/26 campaign, has long been linked with a move to Juventus.
However, the Italian giants are said to be lining up a ‘plan b’, in case a deal with Silva falls through.
According to Tuttosport, Juventus are now targeting Real Madrid and Morocco star Brahim Diaz as a follow up option should Silva opt against signing for the Serie A outfit.
Tribuna reports that Silva’s move to Juventus will fall throughout should the Old Lady fail to qualify for the UEFA Champions League as they sit in sixth position on the Serie A table, two points away from the European spots.
Amid playing a bit-part role for Real Madrid, Diaz’ future is said to be under discussion and also, whether he will be part of incoming manager Jose Mourinho’s plans.
