The 23-year-old would still cost €25m, but Juve already have a good rapport with Valencia after selling goalkeeper Norberto Neto yesterday.

Cancelo is a Portugal international with three goals in just four senior caps and can play in a variety of roles down the right flank.

Valencia only bought him from Benfica two years ago for €15m.
