Lazio, Juventus eyeing Villa striker Benteke

Lazio and Juventus are being linked with Aston Villa striker Christian Benteke.

The Daily Mail says Lazio are weighing up an offer in January but Villa would want around £30m if they agreed to let the prolific Belgian go.

Juventus are also keen on the former Genk forward, with summer signing Fernando Llorente unsettled in Turin.

Benteke handed in a transfer request at Villa during the summer but was quickly convinced to stay at the club, signing an improved four-year deal believed to be worth around £2million-a-season.
