Wanted by Tottenham, the agent of Internacional striker Leandro Damião believes his client would prefer a move to Juventus.
Leandro Damião, 22, has caught the eye in Brazil over the last eighteen months and was the subject of two rejected bids in January, from Tottenham and Paris Saint-Germain.
The player's agent, Vinicius Prates, believes that his client will move this summer, but that Tottenham is not the preferred destination.
"Leandro likes Juventus," Prates told Tutto Mercarto web. "He would like to play there because he considers it one of the best clubs in the world. Juventus is our first option.
"Leandro is a valuable player, with many eyes on him from throughout Europe. I had contact with Fabio Paratici and Giuseppe Marotta (Juventus officials) last year.
"I know that compared to the directors of Real Madrid, Paratici and Marotta are better. Therefore, I would say that Leandro prefers Juventus."
