According to Bild, Jerome Boateng is on the verge of joining Juventus.
There are even reports in Bild that Boateng skipped training and a photoshoot today, so could fly out to Turin within hours.
Chiellini tore his anterior cruciate ligament in training and is expected to be out for around six months.
According to Tuttosport, Calciomercato24.com and Das Bild, Juventus' first target is Boateng, who had already been linked with the Bianconeri before they pounced for De Ligt over the summer.
Sky Sports journalist Marc Behrenbeck reported on Sunday that Jérôme Boateng is considered by Juventus as a replacement for the injured Chiellini. First contact between the two clubs has already taken place.

This guy is a waste product, if Juventus wants to win champions league they should stay away from Boateng. This guy has been a liability at Bayern and with German national team for sometimes now, why signed such a player that would cause you failures. As a Juve's fan I object to this signing if it is actually true.

Jerome Boateng is missing in the Paulaner annual photoshoot. Looks like he's leaving. He won't get playing time and his salary €12m is high. Bayern should sell him before the window closes.
