Juventus are ready to open the door for defender Angelo Ogbonna to leave this summer, prepared a club meet their asking price for the former Torino man.

Ogbonna has grown disillusioned at Juventus and is weighing up his options to quit the club, with his agents having headed for talks with Arsenal, Tottenham and Manchester United last month, in order to assess interest in their client.



Juventus are looking for a fee in the region of €12m to sell the centre-back, with the Bianconeri looking towards Manchester City's Matija Nastasic and Sampdoria's Shkodran Mustafi as potential replacements, according to Italian broadcaster Sport Mediaset.

Ogbonna was snapped up by Juventus just last summer from city rivals Torino, costing the club an initial €13m.
