Juventus are prepared to wait until the summer before snapping up Bayern Munich midfielder Bastian Schweinsteiger.

Juve attempted to land Schweinsteiger in the summer, but were put off by Bayern's £11 million asking price. The midfielder is off contract in June, but Bayern are refusing to budge on their asking price ahead of the January market.

Juve have now resigned themselves to competing for Schweinsteiger in a pre-contract battle from January. Gazzetta dello Sport says they have drawn up a four-year deal worth £3 million-a-season for the Germany international.
