Juventus Target Zenit St Petersburg Defender Bruno Alves

Juventus are looking to sign Zenit St. Petersburg defender Bruno Alves, Tuttomercato claims.

The Portugal international has been an ever-present figure at the Russian club since his €22 million move from Porto last summer.

After a frustrating seventh-placed finish in Serie A last season, the Italians have been working hard to revamp their squad, and it appears they are not satisfied with the pool of talent at their disposal just yet.

According to Tuttomercato, Alves could move to Turin in a cash-only deal, or in an agreement which would see Leonardo Bonucci move in the opposite direction.

The Italy defender is a known transfer target of Zenit, with Juventus general director Giuseppe Marotta claiming earlier today the club had rejected a bid from the Russian side for the 24-year-old.
