Italian media outlet Il Messaggero has learned that Marseille and AS Roma are locked in the battle for Torino full-back Bruno Peres.
The Brazilian defender made the headlines with a stunning solo goal against local rivals Juventus, and he has since continued the rich vein of form.
As a result, the 25-year-old has caught the eye of Europe’s top clubs, with Marseille and AS Roma reportedly leading the chase.
OM lack cover for Brice Dja Djedje on the right hand side and they are very interested in luring the Brazilian to Stade Velodrome.
Meanwhile, the Giallorossi plan to sign a long-term replacement for Douglas Maicon, with Peres one of their primary targets.
The Brazilian has been in fine form this season, having managed 2 goals and 3 assists in 25 Serie A outings.
After the winter break, Marseille face a potential title-decider against Paris Saint-Germain, with Marcelo Bielsa’s charges 2/1 chance to claim maximum points.
