    Juventus still in race to sign Spurs, Man Utd target Embolo

    Giuseppe Marotta and Fabio Paratici are long time admirers of Basel starlet Breel Embolo. The Swiss International has attracted the interest of many European clubs, including Tottenham, Manchester United and newly promoted Bundesliga side RB Leipzig. The Old Lady is not in pole position to sign the 19-year-old striker, though she is still in race to seal his transfer next summer, calciomercato.com has exclusively learned.

    The departure of Alvaro Morata forces the bianconeri to find a new striker in the upcoming transfer window and Massimiliano Allegri would like to have a forward with similar features, which means a strong and pacey player with cold blood in front of goal.

    The player’s price-tag is in the region of € 25 million. Wolfsburg went close to offer that amount in the last two transfer windows, but the Bundesliga side eventually decided not to place an official offer for the promising starlet.

    Will Juve manage to beat off competition from other European clubs and sign Embolo?
