Juventus want Real Madrid’s Marcelo

Juventus remain keen on signing Real Madrid full-back Marcelo to join his former teammate Cristiano Ronaldo, according to reports.

Marca cite a report in Wednesday’s print edition of Italian newspaper Tuttosport that the Brazilian remains a prime target for the Bianconeri, and they are willing to move on his compatriot Alex Sandro.

The report cites Marcelo as telling his representatives and Madrid: “If Juventus make an offer to me, let me go, I want to go to Juventus.”

The 30-year-old is contracted to Los Blancos until 2022, after signing a new deal with the club in September 2017, stating at the time that he wished to end his career in the Spanish capital.

Marcelo is said to be close friends with Ronaldo, who joined Juve in a €100m deal from Los Blancos last summer.
