Juventus director Cristiano Giuntoli will not deny they find Benfica player Antonio Silva \u2018interesting\u2019 and insists they are \u2018holding on tight\u2019 to Napoli and Manchester United target Danilo.<\/p>\n

The Gran Gal\u00e0 del Calcio is this evening, the Italian version of the PFA Awards, so everyone is in attendance at the ceremony.<\/p>\n

Speaking to Sky Sport Italia on the red carpet, Giuntoli was asked how Juve saw the campaign so far following last night\u2019s 1-1 draw away to Lecce.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt is an odd season with so many players out absence, but we are relying on the quality of the group and a coach with a new style of football,\u201d replied Giuntoli.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe objective is to finish in the top four, so paradoxically things are going better than expected, even though we\u2019ve been dropping points lately due to the injuries.\u201d<\/p>\n

With that in mind, and the absence for six months of both Gleison Bremer and Juan Cabal with torn anterior cruciate ligaments, Juventus have been linked with a January bid for Benfica centre-back Antonio Silva.<\/p>\n

\u201cAntonio Silva is an interesting player, as are others,\u201d replied Giuntoli when pressed on this particular name.<\/p>\n

\u201cIn January, everyone tries to keep their cards close to their chest, so we are keeping an eye on various situations.\u201d<\/p>\n

There had also been reports that Juve veteran defender Danilo was a target for both Manchester United and Antonio Conte\u2019s Napoli, especially as his contract will expire at the end of the season.<\/p>\n

\u201cAt this moment he is our captain and we are holding on tight. We\u2019re down to the bare bones in defence as it is, so we have not talked about this with him, nor with Napoli. Our objective is to keep everyone and further reinforce the defence in January,\u201d added Giuntoli.<\/p>\n

The Juventus director was asked whether they also intended to sign a new striker, considering Dusan Vlahovic\u2019s injury has left them totally without centre-forwards.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are confident that Arek Milik will be back soon, so we are waiting for him and really believe in him.\u201d<\/p>\n
