Juventus ponder Hummels swoop

Juventus are weighing up summer move for Borussia Dortmund defender Mats Hummels, according to Tuttosport.

The Bianconeri have been very active in the summer transfer window, having already bought the remaining 50% share in Sebastian Giovinco and Emanuele Giaccherini.

The Serie A giants are also on the verge of signing Kwadwo Asamoah and Maurizio Isla from Udinese, but they don’t want to stop there.

Tuttosport understands Juventus are also searching for defensive reinforcements, with Borussia Dortmund defender Mats Hummels their number one target.

The Bianconeri boss Antonio Conte has been thoroughly impressed with the player’s showings at the European Championship and he has instructed sporting director Fabio Paratici to explore the option of signing the highly rated defender.

However, seeing that Hummels only recently signed a new deal with the Millionaires, Tuttosport believes Juventus need to offer around €18 million in order to get their man.
