Juventus will rival Inter for the signature of Torino defender Bremer in the event that Matthijs de Ligt is sold to Chelsea this summer.

This according to today’s print edition of Turin-based newspaper Tuttosport, who report that the 25-year-old would become a priority target for the Bianconeri to replace de Ligt should he be sold.

Bremer is one of the Nerazzurri’s priority targets and has been for some time, but Juventus could join them in the race and become very insistent should de Ligt be sold as they will want a top-quality replacement for the Dutchman.

One factor that could play in the Bianconeri’s favour is the fact that the Granata are keen on making the loan move of midfielder Rolando Mandragora permanent this summer, while Fiorentina are also interested in him.

Meanwhile, an alternative target for Juventus to replace de Ligt in the event of a sale would be Napoli’s Kalidou Koulibaly, with coach Max Allegri very keen on the experienced 31-year-old.
