For Pepe the move would mark a return to his former club, as he left the Friuli outfit for Turin in 2010 after scoring 14 goals in 104 appearances for them.

The winger has found himself largely side-lined at Juventus and only made 12 league appearances under Coach Massimiliano Allegri during the 2014-15 season, scoring one goal.
