Juventus considering move to sign Nigerian youngster Carney Chukwuemeka

Italian giants, Juventus are reportedly interested in signing Austria-born midfielder Carney Chukwuemeka.

The talented youngster who is of Nigerian descent has been on the radar of several clubs since last summer.

In the ongoing January transfer window, there has been additional interest but no deal has been reached for his signature.

Today, sources have reported that Juventus are considering a move to sign Carney Chukwuemeka to strengthen the squad of the team.

It is understood that Juventus discussed Carney Chukwuemeka with Chelsea officials during talks to sign Renato Veiga.

While no formal bid has been presented to Chelsea by Juventus, a move should not be ruled out before the January transfer window shuts.

It is possible that even if a move to Juventus does not happen, Carney Chukwuemeka could land a transfer to another club as many European sides are interested in his services.

The next couple of days will provide more clarity on the future of the Nigerian.
