What happened. Juventus have revived their interest in Atlético Madrid striker Alexander Sørloth, with coach Luciano Spalletti personally contacting the player. The deal could hinge on Nico González moving to Atlético, potentially as a paid loan for Sørloth.

• Spalletti admires Sørloth as a penalty-box target man and has outlined his plans to him.
• Atlético value Sørloth at around €40m, but a discount may be possible if González moves.
• Sørloth has scored 26, 24, and 20 goals in the last three seasons.

Juventus and Atlético are studying a formula that suits both coaches, with González keen to reunite with Simeone.
