Juventus may have already secured one of their first signings for next season--before this one even ends.

The Bianconeri, who currently are on course for a third consecutive Scudetto, are aspiring to win the Europa League after being dumped out of this year's Champions League group stages.

And as the Turin giants aspire to become a bigger force on the continental stage, they have naturally earmarked several players that they feel can help them help take their game to the next level.

One such player is Barcelona's Alexis Sanchez. The Chilean international, who signed for the Blaugrana from Udinese back in 2011, has largely failed to ignite in Spain and solidify his place in the starting XI.

Saying adios to La Liga and returning to calcio? Numerous Italian sources have claimed so

 

Indeed, according to numerous Italian publications, the reigning Scudetto champions have not denied interest in the 25-year-old, and some have even go so far to claim, notably Sky Sport Italia, that the speedy attacker has already agreed personal terms with the league leaders.

Yet, it remains to be seen whether Barcelona, who recently saw their transfer ban lifted will be willing to part company with a player that has grabbed 19 goals so far in all competitions this season.
