Sheffield United striker Diego de Girolamo is in the sights of Juventus.
The Blades starlet has been capped by Italy at youth level and been offered a new contract by the beaten League Cup semi-finalists.
But the Daily Star Sunday says he has failed to agree new terms and United are now ready to sell.
Sunderland have shown strong interest in recent months but the Italian champions have monitored his progress with the national team and want to take him to Turin.
