Juventus 'eye Houssem Aouar as Paul Pogba alternative'

Juventus could attempt to sign Lyon midfielder Houssem Aouar this summer, according to a report.

Juventus could reportedly move for Lyon midfielder Houssem Aouar in this summer's transfer window.

The 21-year-old has been in impressive form for his French club during the 2019-20 campaign, scoring nine times in 37 appearances in all competitions, in addition to providing seven assists.

Juve have long been linked with a move for Manchester United's Paul Pogba, although it seems possible that the Frenchman could now sign a new contract at Old Trafford despite a host of exit talk.

According to Calciomercato, the Old Lady are still interested in bringing their former player back to Turin but have now identified Aouar as an alternative to the 2018 World Cup winner.

The report claims that Maurizio Sarri's side would have to come up with an offer of at least €50m (£45.4m) if they wanted to sign the former France Under-21 international this summer.

Chelsea and Manchester United have also previously been credited with an interest in Aouar, who will see his current deal with Les Gones expire in June 2023.
