Although Chelsea are said to be keen on him, it is hard to believe that Juventus will let him go this month, after only one year at Allianz Stadium.

However, the news linking the Serbian out of Juventus continues to grow, especially on the basis of the Juventus financial status.

Juventus’ financial situation is playing a part in their potential openness to letting the striker depart, with several reports suggest that the Bianconeri would be open to sell the striker this January.

Last November, Juventus’ board of directors – including president Andrea Agnelli and vice president Pavel Nedved – resigned en masse amid an investigation into fraudulent accounting and alleged hidden payments to players.

The 22-year-old has scored six goal and given one assist in 10 Serie A matches for Juventus so far this season.
