With Gianluigi Donnarumma expected to renew his contract with AC Milan, it’s time for Europe to turn their eyes to the other candidate to be Gianluigi Buffon’s successor.
Juventus are interested in signing a young goalkeeper, and according to Turin newspaper Tuttosport, they’re already set to move for Udinese starlet Alex Meret.
The Old Lady’s idea would be to act quickly and avoid competition from big clubs. Bayern Munich and Manchester United are both said to have made approaches recently, as Chelsea would be interested too.
Given the claim of an approach, Manchester United’s interest would look more concrete than Chelsea’s. Should Sergio Romero leave Manchester United at the end of the season, then the club may look to recruit a new number two, and Meret could be that man.
There’s continual doubts about the future of David De Gea, and third choice stopper Joel 
Pereira is interesting Benfica, should the Portuguese press be believed.
At Chelsea there’s no disputing Thibaut Courtois’ first choice status, but Asmir Begovic may feel like it’s time for first team football elsewhere.
With Meret currently on loan at second division side SPAL, Udinese’s plans were to have Meret back next season, but the interest from clubs like Juventus, Manchester United and Chelsea could mean an early departure for the 20-year-old.
