JUVENTUS could go after Anthony Martial if they cannot get a permanent deal done for Atletico Madrid's Alvaro Morata.

They say Everton striker Moise Kean's loan at Juve is likely to end so they will need cover for main man Dusan Vlahovic.
Morata is the prime target as his ability to also play out wide is liked by Juve boss Massimiliano Allegri.
The 29-year-old reportedly wants to go back to the Serie A giants but the deal with Atleti is said to be "complicated" due to the LaLiga club's valuation.

He has scored in all three of the Red Devils’ friendly wins over Liverpool, Melbourne Victory and Crystal Palace.
