Juventus want to sign Malo Gusto in January?

Juventus are reportedly keen on landing Chelsea defender Malo Gusto when the transfer window reopens in the New Year.

The Bianconeri were interested in landing Nahuel Molina from Atletico Madrid last summer, but could not find a suitable agreement.

Gusto has now been identified as a top target for the Turin giants, given his ability to play on the right or left side of the backline.

Calciomercato claim that Gusto is highly-valued by manager Igor Tudor, but things could change now that Croatian has been sacked.

Tudor was relieved from his duties earlier today and it remains to be seen whether the Bianconeri follow up their interest in January.

Chelsea have no plans of parting ways with the Frenchman as things stand and they could wait until the summer to take a decision.

Gusto has been a regular part of manager Enzo Maresca's plans this campaign and he has regularly deputised for Reece James at right-back.
