The primary goal of the "Bianconeri" is Karim Adeyemi of Borussia Dortmund, but they are also keeping an eye on English players Jadon Sancho of Manchester United and Galeno, a winger for Porto. The Bundesliga team would contemplate a deal for slightly more than 40 million euros, but they are not interested in parting ways with the former Salzburg player.

Apart from team training, Karim Adeyemi's family and friends reside in Munich, and Cristiano Giuntoli, the sporting director of the "Vecchia Signora," traveled there to propose that the 22-year-old athlete be considered for a contract with the "Bianconeri" team.

According to "La Gazzetta dello Sport," the German international has not participated in these matches because he is currently on tour with his team, Borussia Dortmund. In any scenario, Borussia Dortmund, who are currently making the player non-transferable in the terms of Lars Ricken, will not allow him to leave for a price below 40 or 45 million euros. The player's family and agents have been informed of Juventus' interest in the player.

The Vecchia Signora's top goal right now is adding Teun Koopmeiners and Jean-Clair Todibo to strengthen Thiago Motta's team, but the Italian-Brazilian has also made it clear that he wants a winger, and Adeyemi is his top choice for his first season in Turin.

It was reported less than a week ago that Couto was in agreement to move to Dortmund on a principle basis. During his season-long loan at Girona last season, the 22-year-old lived up to the years-long hype around his name by helping the team achieve third place in La Liga and earn a UEFA Champions League spot.

It was reported in January that Couto was seen by City as Kyle Walker's long-term heir. On the other hand, it was stated in June that Manchester City was prepared to let go of the Brazilian. According to Fabrizio Romano, Borussia Dortmund has no plans to fulfill Couto's release clause, which is worth €40 million (£33.1 million).
