Juventus will reportedly sign Paris Saint-Germain striker Edinson Cavani if Carlos Tevez leaves this summer.
Tevez is believed to be open to a move away from the Champions League finalists and has been linked with Liverpool, Atletico Madrid and Boca Juniors.
The Old Lady have already brought in Pablo Dybala from Palermo in a big-money deal, but would apparently be in the market for more attacking reinforcements should they lose Tevez.

Former Juve general manager Luciano Moggi expects Uruguayan Cavani, who has been tipped to join either Chelsea or Manchester United, to be the one to replace his fellow South American in Turin.
He told Sportitalia: “If he (Tevez) leaves, Cavani will arrive. If not, the Juve attack will not change. I think that the Matador (Cavani) can replace the Argentinian perfectly.”
The 28-year-old forward has scored 53 goals in 88 games for PSG since joining in a £55m deal from Napoli in 2013, but has known to be frustrated at often playing second fiddle to Zlatan Ibrahimovic.
