The opportunity to recover an experienced defender at a lower cost arouses desire. In Italy, Juventus Turin have already expressed their interest in strengthening a defense decimated by injuries. But the Old Lady is not the only one on the scene.
According to the Argentinian media The Sports CrackBoca Juniors has been added to the list of Nicolas Tagliafico's courtiers. Former player of Real Madrid and AS Roma and now coach of Boca Juniors, Fernando Gago is pushing internally for the arrival of Tagliafico. The Argentine coach wants to bring experience and grit to his defensive sector and for this, the left back of Olympique Lyonnais ticks all the boxes.
Boca Juniors in hot pursuit for Tagliafico

Good news for Lyon, which is seeing interest multiply for its 1m72 player and who will be able to bring in the competition in order to raise the stakes. The Argentine press mentions a price of between 5 and 8 million euros for Nicolas Tagliafico in the event of a transfer this winter.
