Harry Maguire or Eric Dier? Man Utd and Bayern Munich centre-backs emerge as January targets for Juventus

Italian side Juventus are considering both defenders to bolster their squad in January, Corriere dello Sport reports. With Gleison Bremer and Juan Cabal injured, their priority is bringing experience to the Old Lady as they look to challenge Napoli for the Serie A crown.

The report suggests Juventus are not looking to spend a fortune on a new defender and that is the reason both Maguire and Dier have been highlighted. The former's future is uncertain with new Manchester United head coach Ruben Amorim yet to assess his squad and Bayern Munich have reportedly put a small price tag on the latter after signing him as a free agent from Tottenham, with his contract expiring in the summer.

Between them, the England duo have 113 international caps to their name. They would bring experience and leadership to Juventus in a league that would suit both players with less intensity and high pressing from teams.

It is not known whether Juventus will definitely make a move for either in January. The likes of Milan Skriniar have also been identified, although a player of that calibre may be out of their price range.
