Serie A giants Juventus have reportedly identified their top transfer target even if Cristiano Ronaldo decides to stay.
The Bianconeri are looking to bolster their squad to challenge on all fronts in the coming campaign after falling short in Serie A and the UEFA Champions League last season.
While Ronaldo's future remains undecided heading into the final year of his current contract, Tuttosport has reported that Juventus have identified Manchester City striker Gabriel Jesus as a priority signing.
The Brazilian has struggled to hold down a regular starting berth under Pep Guardiola at City in the past couple of seasons, something that is unlikely to change with the Citizens reportedly keen to sign Harry Kane.
Juve striker Alvaro Morata recently extended his loan deal for another season, but returning manager Massimiliano Allegri reportedly wants Jesus due to his age and his ability to link up with other forwards.
Meanwhile, per Gazzetta dello Sport, the Citizens are open to selling the Selecao striker at the right price as he seemingly no longer fits into Guardiola's plans for the club.
The 24-year-old finished the 2020/21 campaign with 14 goals and four assists across all competitions as City won the Premier League title and the Carabao Cup.
