Juventus have reportedly moved ahead of Chelsea and Manchester City in the race to sign Brescia star Sandro Tonali.
It is stated by Tuttosport, as per a report from Calciomercato, that the Serie A leaders have stolen a march on their competitors as they look to recruit the promising youngster.
The Blues, along with Pep Guardiola’s City side, have been heavily linked with a swoop for Tonali, who has earned rave reviews for performances in his homeland of Italy.
From 15 appearances in Serie B this season, the midfielder has contributed with one goal. He has, however, chipped in with five assists for Brescia.
The 18-year-old has been compared to infamous Italian playmaker Andrea Pirlo in recent times and looks set to be highly sought-after as the January transfer window draws ever closer.
Chelsea could be active at the turn of the year as Maurizio Sarri bids to maintain the team’s push for a successful season.
