Juventus are looking to tap in to the French talent pool in a bid to boost their squad. The Old Lady believe that a raid on Ligue 1 for several players would not be as expensive as sourcing stars from elsewhere and are very impressed with a number of up and coming talents in France.
To this end, Juventus sent several scouts to the 1-1 draw between Saint Etienne and Caen on Saturday, and were rumoured to be closely watching several players on display.
The Serie A giants are believed to be interested in striker Dimitri Payet and midfield captain Blaise Matuidi from Saint Etienne and midfielders Yohan Mollo and Youssef El-Arabi of Caen.
Juventus are expected to send more scouts to fixtures involving the teams over the next couple of months as they draw up their winter transfer window plans.
