West Ham and Liverpool will have scouts watch Juventus defender Angelo Ogbonna during tonight’s Champions League final, according to ESPN.
The centre-back is in-line to replace Giogio Chiellini, who will miss out due to a calf injury sustained in training this week.
The 26-year-old hasn’t been able to nail down a place in the Juventus first team since signing for the club, due to the quality of players they already have at the position.
He has three-years left on his contract, and is an established Italian international, so it’s unlikely he’ll come on the cheap unless he expresses his desire to leave the club for first-team football.
West Ham are ‘long-term admirers’ of the player from his Torino days, and could make a bid for the player.
