Juventus will try to pull off a similar formula to the one that brought Carlos Alcaraz to Turin last January as they attempt to sign Antonio Silva.

The Serie A giants paid 4 million euros to the Premier League side in loan fees, while the deal included an option to buy for a whopping 49 million euros.
