Juventus are ready to make a move for Bayern Munich star Mario Gotze after pulling out of a move to sign Julian Draxler.
The Italian champions are still searching for a new midfielder after the departure of Arturo Vidal.
Chelsea's Oscar, their number one target, will stay at Stamford Bridge and Schalke 04's Julian Draxler will reject offers from Serie A club.
At the end of last month, Gotze admitted that a spell in the Serie A or English Premier League would be a good experience for his professional career.
"I think that Juventus reached the Champions League final not by chance but because they had a great season last year," he told Goal.com.
"They managed to win titles in the last year and they are a big, big club.
"But, at the moment, I don't want to comment because there's nothing to say ... at the moment.
"I think that playing abroad might be a good experience for me: new languages, new cultures. I might like it.
"But, as I said, I'm just at the early stage of my career. Let's see what the future brings."
