Juventus, Monaco and Arsenal are among the clubs lining up for Empoli trequartista Riccardo Saponara.
He had been linked with Liverpool too, but they appear to be going for his Empoli teammate – on loan from Udinese – Piotr Zielinski instead.
According to Sky Sport Italia, Juve have revived their interest in Saponara for next season, as he’d fill the role behind the strikers that Max Allegri has been asking for.

His price-tag is in the region of €15m, but it’s still considerably cheaper than some of their other summer targets and already a success in Serie A.
The 24-year-old fits the profile of a young, Italian player to help build the Bianconeri for the future as well as the present.
Arsenal and Monaco remain contenders for Saponara too.
