Calciomercato.it now have a report on Federico Gatti’s future after this season and when discussing his suitors, they name Newcastle United, Leeds United, Everton, Nottingham Forest and West Ham United.
The five English clubs could make moves to bring the Italy international to the Premier League in the summer.
Juventus, who invested €9m to acquire his signature four years ago, would ‘sacrifice’ him after this season.
Their aim, as per the report, is to collect around €25m from his sale, in order to ‘record a healthy capital gain’.
The defender’s price and the next potential destination seem to have been set, and it now remains to be seen which club will secure his services in the next window.
Calciomercato.it point out a potential move to Nottingham Forest or Nuno Espírito Santo’s side will depend on their Premier League stay.
The City Ground club are now 16th in the table, three points ahead of 18th placed West Ham.
