With João Cancelo rumoured to move to Manchester City this season, Juventus have made a four-man shortlist of potential replacements which also includes Tottenham’s Kieran Trippier, Manchester City’s Danilo, and Napoli’s Elseid Hysaj.

Meanwhile, Atlético have shown a great interest in Semedo to replace Juanfran, who leaves the Wanda Metropolitano after eight years at the club.

Semedo arrived at Barcelona two years ago from Benfica in a move that cost the club €35m and has made a whopping 82 appearances in that time.
