As a result, Juventus have drawn up a three-man transfer shortlist of potential targets.

As reported by , one of these targets is Chelsea outcast Pulisic, who was also approached for a loan transfer by Manchester United late in the summer window.

Pulisic has fallen way off his best performances with persistent injury concerns flatlining his progress.

Wolves star Traore is another target on their list.

However, his end product remains sketchy and it has seen his game time at Wolves limited this season.

The final player on their list is Roma star Nicolo Zaniolo.

The Italian recently suffered an embarrassing wardrobe malfunction during Roma's 1-0 loss to Atalanta.

However, the 23-year-old is more used to playing in a central role, which is likely not to be afforded with the current Juventus setup under Massimiliano Allegri.

Allegri has struggled to get Juventus playing the same way he did when he won multiple and consecutive league titles with them in his first stint, and he has consequently come under pressure with the club sitting down in eighth.
