Juventus interested in Stevan Jovetic, Gonzalo Higuain

Juventus director-general Beppe Marotta has revealed that the Italian champions are interested in signing Real Madrid striker Gonzalo Higuain and Fiorentina forward Stevan Jovetic.

The Turin giants are keen on acquiring attacking players this summer despite having already secured the services of Athletic Bilbao striker Fernando Llorente on a free transfer.

"We want to reinforce the squad, to give [coach Antonio] Conte a team that is even more competitive," Marotta told Rai Sport on Tuesday. "We are evaluating several attacking options.

"Higuain is certainly very interesting. We're looking to sign players who want to come to Juventus and are willing to leave their club.

"We hear a lot about Jovetic playing in black and white, but he remains a Fiorentina player and we respect that. I must admit, though, that he is a great player."

Juventus have won the Scudetto for the past two seasons.
