    Barcelona after Juventus target Vrsaljko

    When talk turns to Emilian minnows Sassuolo, the biggest talking point beyond their positive approach to the game is Domenico Berardi, seemingly everyone’s favourite transfer target at the moment.

    Yet the neroverdi possess another jewel who may well be making a move to a prestigious European club before long. According to El Mundo Deportivo, full-back Sime Vrsaljko is on Barcelona’s wishlist, having already tempted during the summer before the Partenopei balked at his hefty price tag.

    Barcelona won’t be alone, either, with Juventus reportedly expressing an interest in the Croatian, following news that Stefan Lichtsteiner may miss a big chunk of this season with cardiac arrhythmia.

    The Catalans' coach Luis Enrique is reportedly very interested in the full-back, and has involved Ariedo Braida in the case. Interested in an alternative to Dani Alves and unconvinced by either Douglas or Adriano Correia, Vrsaljko’s 15 million pricetag could be justified if he is good enough to replace Alves, whose contract expires at the end of the season.
