As was public knowledge, Juventus were in the market for an attacking midfielder. It has now been revealed that the Serie A champions made a €25 million bid for the Slovakia international.
Napoli president Aurelio De Laurentiis revealed that he rejected a €25 million bid from Juventus for his captain Marek Hamsik on transfer deadline day.
After Juve lost out on long-term target Julian Draxler, who opted to join Wolfsburg from Schalke.
The champions league finalist failed in a bid to sign Hamsik before eventually signing Hernanes from Inter in an €11m deal and Mario Lemina on loan from Marseille.
De Laurentiis while speaking to Radio Kiss Kiss said:
"This is a team which has kept its stars, Juventus wanted Hamsik for €25m, I asked them for Stefano Sturaro and Daniele Rugani and they refused… so they got Hernanes instead."
"We had offers totalling €98m, not including those for Gonzalo Higuain and not selling them is the same as if I had bought players worth that much."
