Juventus 'hold talks with Carlos Tevez's representatives'

Juventus are reportedly close to landing Manchester City striker Carlos Tevez after making contact with his representatives.

The Italian outfit have been linked with a swoop for the Argentina international, who could be sold by City in a bid to prevent him from leaving for free next summer.

While Monaco and AC Milan have been touted as potential suitors, it is believed that Tevez's agents held a meeting with Juve this week, according to the Northern Echo.

The 29-year-old has been a Man City player since moving from Manchester United in 2009.
