Juventus Plotting to Raid Tottenham for Talented Midfield Duo

Published on: 16 May 2016

"?Juventus are set to rock Tottenham's foundations by launching a daring raid for their midfield duo Christian Eriksen and Nabil Bentaleb, "?Football Insider report. 


The Serie A champions are closely monitoring the talented pair as they seek to make improvements to their squad.


Eriksen has publicly expressed his desire to stay at Spurs and the club have offered him a contract extension which will see him pocket around £80,000 a week.


However, the Danish international hasn't put pen to paper on the new deal just yet, which has put the Bianconeri on red alert.


Mauricio Pochettino will be hugely reluctant to lose one of his star players and Juve might find their pursuit of Bentaleb more successful.


The 21-year-old deep-lying midfielder has slipped down the pecking order at White Hart Lane partially due to a succession of injuries. 


He only signed a new five-year-deal with the club last year, but could be tempted by a switch to the Italian giants. 


Tottenham have a history of selling their prized assets, but they will be eager to retain the core members of their squad and build upon the success of finishing third.


The North-London based outfit will be in the Champions League next season and they are reportedly in the market for a world-class striker who can help lighten the load on Harry Kane's shoulders.
