The Ghana star is not a regular starter at the J Stadium and according to reports in Italy he has requested the Champions League finalists to leave in the summer.

It would be an opportunity for Kwadwo Asamoah to reunite with Andre Ayew his Black Stars teammate at West Ham United.

28-year-old is understood to have handed in a transfer request and it’s believed Juventus will not stand in Asamoah’s way as he aims to kick-start his career elsewhere.

After all, since moving from Udinese for around £15 million in 2012, he has been a loyal servant to the Turin giants.

And this should spark Premier League duo West Ham and Southampton into action.

According Calciomercato claimed recently that they are both interested in bringing the dynamic Asamoah to England.

The 69-time international would certainly fit the bill at West Ham. Aaron Cresswell endured a difficult campaign at left-back while Arthur Masuaku is yet to convince on a regular basis.

Furthermore, Asamoah’s combative approach and skill in possession means he would be the ideal replacement for Pedro Obiang with The Sun claiming that Everton will battle AC Milan and Sevilla for the £15 million-rated midfielder.

Southampton, too, could do with reinforcements at left-back as speculation continues to swirl about the future of England international Ryan Bertran
