Juventus is looking to bolster the squad after the unfortunate injury sustained by star winger Federico Chiesa. With Chiesa set to miss the remainder of the season after suffering a torn ACL following a collision with Roma's Chris Smalling, Massimiliano Allegri could look to replace the Italian with a Premier League star. According to 90min, Juventus are eyeing a move for Manchester United outcast Anthony Martial as cover for the injured Chiesa.

Juventus to prepare Martial bid after injury to Federico Chiesaā 90min (@90min_Football) January 12, 2022
Martial has long been linked with a move away from United. The Frenchman has struggled to earn playing time this season, and has yet to feature under new manager Ralf Rangnick. Martial previously indicated to the club his desire to leave in January and was heavily linked with a loan move to Sevilla. Nothing materialized on that front, but Martial's longing for a new opportunity still remains, and Juventus appear to be willing to offer him a lifeline.
Manchester United remain adamant that a significant portion of Martial's wages be covered in any potential loan move, and it appears Juventus could be willing to take on the player's salary in order to facilitate a move.
90min claim that Juventus are āreadying an offerā to bring Martial to Italy on loan, a deal that would include a buy option for Juventus to make the deal permanent.
Martial has featured in just seven Premier League games for Manchester United this season, starting just twice. He's recorded merely 202 minutes in England's top flight, providing one goal. Once considered the future at striker for Manchester United, Martial has quickly seen himself fall out of favor under Rangnick and could now be staring at the end of his tenure at Old Trafford.
