Juventus to Accelerate to Sign Frosinone Star Raimondo
Juventus have been tracking Antonio Raimondo, and his recent hat-trick against Sassuolo heightened their desire to acquire him. He's scheduled to spend the season on loan from Bologna to Frosinone. However, the Bianconeri could move in January to beat the competition.
According to La Gazzetta dello Sport , the Old Lady is wary that a few Premier League clubs are also keen. They could make an offer to the Rossoblù in the next window but let the player stay at his current club. The stratagem would also buy them some goodwill with the Ciociari in their chase of Lorenzo Palmisani .

Juventus have a couple of bargaining chips that could entice Bologna to sell Raimondo to them. The counterparty pursued Fabio Miretti as part of the John Lucumi package, but the defender transferred just for cash. Instead, the midfielder headed to Besiktas on loan with an option to buy.
The Rossoblù could also be interested in Michele Di Gregorio, Corriere dello Sport relays. Lukas Skorupski and Matteo Pessina have been uneven so far. He has played just once at Bournemouth so far, as he hasn't unseated Djordje Petrovic.
Bologna director Marco Di Vario recently talked about their loanee to DAZN (via Calciomercato ).
"We have no regrets; he was serene and showed maturity last summer, as he knew another year at Frosinone would have helped him, since he has their trust. He's a youngster who's doing well in Serie A too and represents our future."
Our Take on Juventus and Raimondo
There's a solid chance he'll keep going strong and that suitors will flock. They should indeed act swiftly, and bringing him in January will be challenging but surely wouldn't hurt. However, the Felsinei are quite an expensive boutique.
