Manchester United and Liverpool are reportedly targeting a Juventus star but it will take a 'mind-blowing' offer to sign him. Ruben Amorim's side have spent a lot on their defence in recent times but further investment in that area cannot be ruled out, while the Reds are looking for someone to partner Virgil van Dijk at the back. Now, both teams have targeted a €80 million-rated player.
Juventus star in Premier League sides' sights
According to Calciomercato, United and Liverpool are keeping tabs on Juventus centre-back Gleison Bremer. Juve are said to value the 28-year-old at between €70-80m (£61-70m), which would fall under the umbrella of a 'mind-blowing offer'.

The report adds that it is very unlikely that the Brazil international will leave Juventus but that has not stopped the two Premier League sides, along with Chelsea and Bayern Munich, from registering interest in Bremer. But he still has four years left on his deal so this is not an easy transfer to make.
Bremer on comeback trail
Bremer had become one of Juve's best defenders and his absence was keenly felt last season when he was out injured with an ACL problem. After returning to the first-team this campaign, he is approaching something close to his best form and the Old Lady do not want to lose him.

Aside from transfer speculation, the 6ft 2in defender will be focusing on Juventus' Serie A clash with Atalanta on Saturday. Incidentally, the report says that he and team-mate Kenan Yildiz are 'unsellable', although every player has his price.
