Juventus set to table a €10 million bid for Galatasaray defender Semih Kaya

Juventus are set to table a €10 million bid for Galatasaray defender Semih Kaya according to NTV Spor Express.

The Serie A champions are looking to lower the average age of their squad and bolster their defensive options in January.

The 23-year-old defender has been recommended to Juventus by their former manager Antonio Conte. Juventus’s current manager Massimiliano Allegri is also believed to be a fan of the Galatasaray defender.

The report goes on to say that Juventus have sent scouts to monitor Kaya’s performance and that they will make a €10 million bid for him in January.

Kaya still has four-years left on his contract and makes €1.5 million per-season.

Juventus have also expressed an interest in Nastasic, Chiriches and Dragovic if they are unable to agree upon a fee with Galatasaray for the centre back.

Kaya has also been linked with Manchester United, Atletico Madrid and Inter in recent weeks.

The Turkish international has made 12 appearances for Galatasaray this season.
