Juventus will join Manchester United in battling it out for the signature of Arsenal playmaker Mesut Ozil, according to reports in Italy.
The 29-year-old is entering the final months of his contract at the Emirates, and is set to walk away for free at the end of the season.
Ozil's availability is set to prompt a battle for his services to break out among top European clubs, with Jose Mourinho and United early front-runners to re-home the former Real Madrid man.
Reports in Italian publication Calciomercato this week however claim Juve have entered the race, looking to set the ground work in order to have Ozil ready to move over to Turin once the summer transfer window opens.
The report reveals, 'Juventus have followed the German champion for three seasons,' indicating the interest of the Old Lady is longstanding.
