Sources in Italy suggest that Juventus expect bids from both Chelsea and Manchester United to arrive for Serbian winger Milos Krasic in January.
The 26-year-old was one of the few Bianconeri players to emerge from last season with any credit – Juventus finished seventh – and he adapted quickly to life in Serie A, posing a constant threat to opposition defences.
And Krasic’s continued development has not been lost on Chelsea or United, with the English duo preparing to go head-to-head for the speedy wide man.
The Serbia international only landed in Turin last year, moving from Russian Premier League outfit CSKA Moscow for €15M.
Were Juventus to cash in on Krasic, they would wish to realise a substantial profit, aiming to add at least €10M to the amount they had to pay to prise him from the Russian capital.
Krasic made 33 appearances in Serie A last season, becoming a fixture for Juventus and being noted as the Serie A side’s main attacking threat. He chipped in with seven goals throughout the campaign.
The Serbian is under contract with the Bianconeri until 2014.
