Juventus aiming to sign either Juan Mata or Oscar this summer
Posted Friday, April 10, 2015 by squawka.com
Juventus are interested in signing Manchester United midfielder Juan Mata or Chelsea's Oscar at the end of the season, reports the Daily Express.
Paul Pogba's future has been the subject of intense speculation this season, and Juventus have identified the Premier League duo as potential replacements for the France international, while Tuttomercatoweb claim that Dortmund's Henrikh Mkhitaryan is also under consideration.
Mata has been excellent for United in recent weeks, and he scored both of the club's goals in their 2-1 win against Liverpool at Anfield.
The Spain international has averaged 90% pass accuracy and registered four assists in the top flight this season, though he hasn't always been a guaranteed starter since Louis van Gaal took over at Old Trafford last summer.
Chelsea are one of the club's chasing Pogba, and the Premier League leaders could be willing to sell Oscar to raise the funds to sign the in-demand 22-year-old.
Oscar was substituted at half-time in the club's win against Stoke last weekend, though the Brazil international has scored six goals and registered seven assists in the top flight this term.
Juventus look set to win their fourth consecutive league title this season, and they are currently 14 points clear at the top of the table with nine games to go.
Mata has scored 0.36 goals per 90 minutes in the league this season, the joint-most of any United midfielder.
