Juventus and Napoli are both reportedly interested in signing Atalanta BC midfielder Franck Kessie.
The 19-year-old, who was strongly linked with a move to Sunderland in the summer transfer window, revealed last week that he wants to represent Manchester United in the future.
Kessie has already scored four times in three appearances for his Italian club this season, and according to Sportitalia, both Juventus and Napoli want to sign the Ivory Coast international at the start of 2017.
The teenager started his professional career with Stella Club in Ivory Coast, before making the move to Atalanta in 2015. Last season, Kessie scored four league goals during a loan spell with Cesena.
