JUVENTUS have turned their attentions away from Hector Bellerin and will instead pursue Manchester United outcast Matteo Darmian, according to reports.
It could pave way for the Red Devils to replace the Italy international with Arsenal’s rapid right-back.
Bellerin, 23, could leave the Gunners this summer following a disastrous campaign for both club and player.
The Spanish international was involved in a bust-up with manager Arsene Wenger earlier this month after being dropped against Brighton, as SunSport exclusively revealed.
He has also unhappy at taking the brunt of criticism from supporters for a number of dismal Arsenal performances.
Reports have emerged that Arsenal would be willing to cash in should they receive an offer in the region of £50million.
That grabbed the attentions of both Juventus and Manchester United who are looking to bolster their defences this summer.
But it appears the Old Lady are ready to pull out of the race according to Goal.
