Serie A giants Juventus have reportedly identified Bayer Leverkusen’s Victor Boniface as a replacement for their forward, Dusan Vlahovic.
The Bianconeri have been trying to negotiate a new deal with Vlahovic in recent weeks.
Talks with Vlahovic’s entourage have, however, moved slowly, and he may not be willing to accept a lower salary in a new long-term contract.

According to Gazzetta dello Sport, Juventus director Cristiano Giuntoli is a fan of Boniface and is targeting a move for the striker.
The 22-year-old has scored 14 goals and provided seven assists in 21 appearances across all competitions for Bayer Leverkusen this season.
He is valued around €40m by Transfermarkt.
