Brazilian striker Leandro Damiao favours a move to Juventus over Real Madrid or Tottenham Hotspur, according to the player's agent.

The agent of Internacional striker Leandro Damiao has claimed that Juventus is the most destination for his client.

Damiao has been repeatedly linked with Tottenham Hotspur in recent months but Juventus appear to be favourites to sign the 22-year-old despite interest from Real Madrid.

Vinicius Prates said: "Leandro really likes Juventus, he wants to play for them because they are one of the best teams in the world. Juventus are our first choice.

"Leandro is a valuable player, he has a lot of eyes on him, from all over Europe. I had contact with [Juventus officials] Fabio Paratici and Giuseppe Marotta last year. I know that compared to the directors of Real, they are better, so I would say that Leandro prefers Juventus to Real Madrid."

Damiao has played for the Brazil national team five times.
