Juventus iconic midfielder Claudio Marchisio terminated his contract with the Serie A champions on mutual consent and is free to choose his next destination.
The experienced 32-year-old Italian has generated plenty of interest from around the globe but it appears that Portugal could be his next destination.
Portuguese news outlet Abola claims that both Benfica and Porto hold an interest in his services while also adding that Lisbon has emerged as one of the places his family would like to move to. Such a notion would put Benfica in pole position for his signature knowing that Sporting CP had their interest faded in recent days.
The Italy international is expected to hold a meeting with representatives of Porto and Benfica to discuss a potential move.
The 32-year-old midfielder made 389 appearances at Juventus and played a vital role in his team’s glut of seven consecutive Serie A titles.
