Juventus will look to Barcelona’s Adriano if they cannot lure Real Madrid full-back Marcelo, according to reports.
Italian sports daily Tuttosport claims Marcelo is the preferred choice of Head Coach Antonio Conte to strength Juventus’s left-side.
The Brazil international, however, could be difficult to prize away from Real and Tuttosport suggests Adriano may be a more viable option.
The 29 year-old, who has been with Barça since 2010, has often been a squad player, or used out of position in a variety of different roles. The opportunity to be a regular at Juventus in his preferred position may tempt him to make the move, while he will also likely be cheaper to sign than Marcelo.
