Juventus are looking to strengthen their backline with a defender from the Premier League and the Bianconeri are currently following Alex from Chelsea and Gary Cahill from Bolton.

The Brazilian defender is unsettled in London and Portuguese manager Andre Villas-Boas has made it clear that there is no space for him at Stamford Bridge.

Juve have long been following him and were turned down by the Blues in the summer. Now it could be much easier to bring the Brazilian to Turin although Arsenal are ready to step in and could persuade the 29-year-old player to stay in London.

At the same time, the Bianconeri are also looking at Cahill. The 25-year-old defender will be a free agent in the summer and could be a cheaper but equally talented option for the Old Lady.

However, once again, Juve will face tough competition from Premier League clubs, namely Tottenham and Manchester United.
