Barcelona eye Juventus defender as Semedo replacement

Barcelona eye Juventus defender as Semedo replacement

Barcelona have reportedly turned their attention to Juventus full-back Mattia De Sciglio as Nelson Semedo is expect to move to Wolverhampton Wanderers.

Although De Sciglio came on as a substitute for youngster Gianluca Frabotta in La Vecchia Signora’s 3-0 victory against Sampdoria in Serie A on Sunday evening, there are doubts if he will remain a part of new coach Andrea Pirlo’s plans.

According to Mundo Deportivo, Barcelona want a defender that has experience playing at a big club and the Juventus right-back fits their criteria having also played at AC Milan.

Semedo is close to a transfer to Wolves reportedly worth €35 million and De Sciglio is capable of playing on both sides of the defence.

The Italian international seems to be popular with Spanish clubs as after the 2019/20 season had concluded.

De Sciglio played just nine times throughout the 2019/20 Serie A campaign and he featured twice in the Champions League.
