The Italian media outlet Gazzetta dello Sport claims Juventus defender Mehdi Benatia looks set to leave Turin this winter.

The former Bayern Munich centre-back is attracting plenty of interest from all around the globe with clubs from China and the United Arab Emirates said to be interested in the Moroccan.

Benatia could very likely remain in Europe, however, as the same source claims London rivals Arsenal and Fulham appear to be also keen on his services.

The 31-year-old has dropped down the pecking order at Juventus and is looking to revive his career this winter. Arsenal and Fulham have both made their interest known and are hoping that Juventus would be willing to discuss a potential deal for the player who only made five Serie A appearances this season.

He joined Juventus in 2016 on a loan but made his move permanent a year later.
