Juventus and Atalanta held talks on Tuesday regarding the future of Italian Under-21 international Manolo Gabbiadini.

The Old Lady are interested in the 20-year-old who is widely considered as a potential star striker of the future.

Gabbiadini only scored one goal in 23 League games this term, but he’s wanted by a host of clubs including Borussia Dortmund.

Juve are understood to have made Atalanta a €4m offer for a 50 per cent share in the centre-forward.

It is believed that Juve want to take the Azzurrini star this summer and then send him out on loan to a smaller club.

Bologna are an option, but there is a theory that they may use him as a tempting pawn in order to do a deal with Pescara for Marco Verratti.

Talks between Juventus and Atalanta are set to continue.

Is he any good?

One goal wtf? As a striker

I think this is the kid that was nicknamed Tripletta and almost signed at the end of last season

He been called up to the U-21 team pretty regularly. He's probably worth a 4 million investment, especially if he can help make the Verratti move happen.

Next Vieri [lol]
