Striker hunt! Spalletti identifies two main candidates for Juventus attack

Juventus are working tirelessly to bolster their attacking line before the transfer window slams shut.

Details: According to renowned insider Nicolò Schira, the Turin club has zeroed in on signing a new centre-forward. The top transfer targets for Bianconeri head coach Luciano Spalletti are Atlético Madrid striker Alexander Sorloth and Crystal Palace forward Jean-Philippe Mateta. The Italian manager is adamant about bringing in a powerful finisher to lead the line.

Meanwhile, Juventus sporting director Ricky Massara holds Manchester United's Joshua Zirkzee in high regard. However, the Dutch striker lacks the specific attributes and skill set that Spalletti deems essential for his tactical system.

It's worth noting that the reputable portal Transfermarkt values 30-year-old Alexander Sorloth at €25 million, 29-year-old Jean-Philippe Mateta at €30 million, and 25-year-old Joshua Zirkzee at €40 million.
