Summary
Juventus is reshaping its recruitment approach with a new scouting team and closer monitoring of the market ahead of next summer. Corriere dello Sport reports the club has drawn up a lengthy list of midfield targets, with French winger Bakola of Sassuolo a long-standing name whose price has risen to €30m as Premier League interest intensifies. Four Brazilian midfielders are also under study: André and Breno Bidon at Corinthians, Matheus Martinelli of Fluminense, and Gabriel Bontempo at Santos. André had been promised to Milan but that deal collapsed; Breno Bidon, born 2005, holds Italian citizenship and has been called up by Brazil coach Ancelotti.
