Manchester United and Chelsea defensive target Alex Sandro has communicated to Juventus that he wants to leave the club in the January transfer window.

The defender’s future at Juventus has been under the scanner since last summer, when Chelsea wanted to sign him, but the Italian champions managed to hold on to him.




His form this season has taken a dive and there have been suggestions that Juventus have been rethinking their position on the defender ahead of the January transfer window.

And according to Italian broadcaster Sportitalia, the defender has told the Italian champions that he wants to leave the club before the end of the winter window.
 


Juventus are yet to make any definitive decision on Sandro’s future, but they are aware of the interest from some of the top clubs in Europe the full-back has generated.
