Turin-based newspaper Tuttosport understands that Juventus and Roma are among the clubs showing interest in FC Porto forward Juan Manuel Iturbe.
Having had made just six substitute appearances in the league for the Dragons, the 20-year-old joined Hellas Verona in a low-profile loan move in the summer, but he has since exploded onto the biggest stage.
Iturbe has been one of star performers in what has been a very successful season for Gialloblu and he is now being linked with a host of Europe’s top clubs.
AS Roma are believed to be leading the chase at the moment, but latest reports suggest Juventus are prepared to challenge their league rivals for the talented forward.
Hellas Verona have the option to make his transfer permanent for €15 million, and they plan to exercise the clause only to sell him on for profit.
Juan Manuel Iturbe has been in fine form this season, having managed 5 goals and 2 assists in 21 Serie A outings.
