Juventus are ready to jettison young midfielder Antonio Candreva.

Candreva struggled to make an impact at Juve following his January loan arrival from Udinese.

Juve chose not to take up their option to buy him outright, so the Italy international has returned to the Stadio Friuli.

Other buyers could prove a problem after such a poor six months, so Udinese could well keep hold of the player.
