Wolverhampton Wanderers 'in talks to sign Juventus striker Andrea Favilli'

Wolverhampton Wanderers have allegedly opened talks with Juventus about signing youngster Andrea Favilli.

The 21-year-old could be on his way to Molineux in a deal worth £18m, according to Sky Sports News.

Juve only recently re-signed Favilli from Ascoli, but the report suggests that they are aiming to make a quick profit on him.

The former Italy Under-21 international is one of the most highly-rated prospects in Serie A, scoring five times in 12 appearances for Ascoli last season.

The Old Lady originally snapped up Favilli from Livorno's youth academy.
