Barcelona in talks with Juventus midfielder Federico Bernardeschi

Barcelona are moving for Juventus midfielder Federico Bernardeschi.

Barca met with Bernardeschi's people in Turin last week, with the Italian's contract up in June.

The Juventus forward is of interest to Barcelona and Mateu Alemany spoke with his agent, Federico Pastorello. It was an informal encounter in which they did discuss the idea of Bernardeschi playing at Barcelona next season.

It's not the first time they've spoken about the 27 year old. Barcelona are looking at making one top signing in the summer and others at zero transfer cost.

Bernardeschi has not renewed his deal with the Old Lady. They want him to lower his salary and their stances are far apart. In Italy they say the player would like to renew. He left Mino Raiola for Pastorello this year.
