Juventus eye incredible five-man swoop for Spurs’ Eriksen and Alderweireld as well as Man Utd stars De Gea, Bailly and Matic on free transfers – The Sun

JUVENTUS are eyeing an incredible double swoop for Tottenham’s Christian Eriksen and Toby Alderweireld on free transfers, according to reports.

The Italian giants, who are renowned for securing players at the end of their contracts, already have Manchester United stars David De Gea, Eric Bailly, and Nemanja Matic in their sights.


The Red Devils trio have entered the final year of their respective deals, with Gazzetta Dello Sport claiming Maurizio Sarri is keen to raid his former rivals.

And now the Mail have reported that Juve want to add Eriksen and Alderwireld to their ranks, but face competition for the latter from Inter Milan.

The Nerazzurri are understood to have contacted the Belgian defender's representatives – with negotiations likely to be swiftly concluded.

But Juve could look to edge their Serie A rivals with their astounding record of top-class free transfer signings as they look to fill the void left by Giorgio Chiellini's lengthy injury setback.

The league champions bagged Arsenal’s Aaron Ramsey and Paris Saint-Germain pair Adrien Rabiot and Gianluigi Buffon for nothing this summer.

And now Juve have been alerted by Tottenham's failure to tie down two of its stars to fresh terms.

Mauricio Pochettino admitted he was left worried by Eriksen’s desire to leave Spurs before the European window slammed shut earlier this week.

And the midfielder has since revealed his frustration at failing to find a new club, with Atletico Madrid entering the race for his signature.

SunSport also understands that United are plotting a big-money bid in January to tempt Spurs into selling the Dane.
