  THE BIGGER PICTURE

  The English champions have reportedly offered to pay a whopping €70 million (£59m/$72m) to secure the signature of Cambiaso. The 24-year-old's ability to play both as a full-back and a wing-back makes him an attractive option for City, who are looking for a long-term replacement for AC Milan-bound Kyle Walker. Juve's plan is supposedly to put that money towards signing Chilwell and Veiga.
