West Ham are bracing for a significant departure this January, with experienced midfielder Guido Rodriguez reportedly nearing a loan move to Serie A giants Juventus.

According to a new report from Tutto Mercato Web, the 31-year-old Argentine World Cup winner has already expressed his ‘willingness’ to swap East London for Turin.

Juventus are currently weighing up their options as they look to bolster their engine room for the second half of the campaign.

While the “Old Lady” reportedly has ambitious long-term plans to bring in Newcastle United’s Sandro Tonali, the financial logistics of such a deal make Rodriguez a far more attractive, low-cost alternative.

The report highlights that a new midfielder is a top priority for Juventus manager Luciano Spalletti.

The Italian club is understood to have established contact regarding Rodriguez months ago and is now poised to make a final decision.

The proposed deal structure is expected to be a loan for the remainder of the season, potentially including an option to buy, with Rodriguez’s valuation estimated at around €10m.

While other suitors are monitoring the situation, Juventus remain in the driver’s seat, with developments expected imminently as the winter window heats up.
