Reports have surfaced that Italian giants Juventus have been encouraged by comments from Theo Walcott yesterday.

The Arsenal winger admitted the lack of silverware will make it difficult for the club to keep their best players.

New Juve coach Antonio Conte is a big fan of the England international and Tuttosport has reported that he has urged general manager Beppe Marotta to move for the winger.

The Turin giants reportedly have €120 million to spend this summer and have the cash power to convince Arsenal to part with their England star.

Lyon winger Michel Bastos is also a target, though his lack of an EU passport means Walcott is the preferred option.
