Arsenal, Manchester United in transfer tussle to sign Juventus fullback

Arsenal and Manchester United are set to battle it out for the signature of Andrea Cambiaso from Juventus if the fullback fails to sign a new contract.

Juventus are currently going through a tough period with Massimiliano Allegri shown the exit door just days after lifting the Coppa Italia title.

With a new manager set to come in, some players are expected to leave the club with new players expected to arrive.

Latest reports from Tutto Juve claimed Andrea Cambiaso has emerged as a target for Arsenal and Manchester United ahead of the summer.

The report also claimed he could also engage in contract talks with Juventus. However, if he fails to agree on a new deal, then the two Premier League clubs or more can angle a move for the 24-year-old Italian full-back.

Cambiaso has a contract in Turin until 2027, which does give Juventus protection should some clubs come in with their interest.

Apart from Manchester United and Arsenal who are willing to sign the Juventus star teams like Aston Villa and Fulham, are also looking at Cambiaso ahead of the summer.

However, Arsenal and Manchester United are the favourites, as per the report, both teams are eagerly waiting to hear from intermediaries on whether they have a chance of landing the 24-year-old Italian full-back.

Juventus are in the market to sell some of their stars. But it is not clear whether they are keen to include Cambiaso on that list
