Juventus eye Strasbourg’s Diego Moreira

Juventus’ main goal currently is to qualify for the Champions League through Serie A. But that being said, they are already looking at the market as well. As per tuttojuve.com, the Bianconeri are monitoring the development of Diego Moreira at Strasbourg.

Moreira has been fantastic for a very impressive young Strasbourg side this season. He was been converted from a winger into a wing-back and has scored twice and assisted 7 times in Ligue 1 this season. A couple of years back, Moreira has been signed by Chelsea when he had barely made a couple of appearances for Benfica’s senior team. The Blues barely gave him a go and while his Lyon move didn’t work out either, it feels like he has found a stable home at the club managed by Liam Rosenior.

The 20-year-old is known for his speedy and dribbling and while his value must not be too much more than €20m, the French club won’t be particularly keen to sell. It does seem like the player himself isn’t particularly keen on moving yet either. Either way, Juve aren’t the first Italian club to be after him as Milan had reportedly scouted him a few years back.
