Juventus battle West Ham for Batshuayi, Nkoudou

According to Sport24, Juventus are readying moves for Michy Batshuayi and Georges-Kévin Nkoudou this summer, both thought to be targets for West Ham.

The report says that Juventus are ready to spend around £45m on the Marseille pair as they look to strengthen their squad for the upcoming Serie A season.

With Alvaro Morata and Simone Zaza both potentially off to pastures new, Juventus are in the market for a striker and Batshuayi fits the bill. The 26-year-old has scored 26 Ligue 1 goals in two seasons for Marseille, which has attracted interest from a number of clubs, including West Ham.

Nkoudou is also thought to be a summer target for Slaven Bilic, but Juventus are very keen on him too. The 21-year-old winger played 38 games last season, scoring five and setting up ten.

Both players would have been fantastic additions for West Ham, but it seems as though Juventus are a pace ahead in the race.
