Juventus are expected to be pretty busy during the January transfer window as the Bianconeri must sign a few reinforcements.
First and foremost, the Bianconeri need a versatile defender to replace the injured Gleison Bremer and Juan Cabal, but recent reports suggest the Old Lady will seek reinforcements in other departments as well.

Juventus are waiting for offers for Douglas Luiz and Nicolò Fagioli, and according to Gazzetta, the sale of one of them would allow Giuntoli to sign a new midfielder.
The pink paper reports that Motta’s dream is to reunite with Scotland international Ferguson, who scored 13 goals in 65 appearances under the Bianconeri’s boss in Bologna.
At the same time, the Serie A giants are also monitoring some strikers, despite Giuntoli’s recent claims.
Zirkzee’s name is naturally high on their agenda, and according to Gazzetta, the Dutch forward is already seeking an exit from Old Trafford.
According to Gazzetta, an initial loan deal would please both the striker and Juventus, but Manchester United are yet to give their green light.
