JUVENTUS could be forced to let FIVE players leave on free transfers at the end of the season.
The Old Lady were hit with a 15-point deduction last month following a transfer scam with Tottenham sporting director Fabio Paratici.
Juventus could be forced to lose five of their best playersRex
This came after their ENTIRE board of directors resigned from their positions, including president Andrea Agnelli and vice chairman Pavel Nedved.
As a result, the Italian giants are trying to cut costs at every opportunity.
And according to La Gazzetta dello Sport it could lead to Juve losing some of their best players.
The report claims that Juventus have ended all contract negotiations, which will save them £62m.
The five players that could be offloaded are Alex Sandro, Adrien Rabiot, Leandro Paredes, Angel Di Maria and Juan Cuadrado.
Three of those started Tuesday’s victory over Salernitana, while Cuadrado was a second half substitute, which highlights how much of a blow it would be for Juventus to lose them.
Paredes wasn’t involved, but he’s only on loan with an option to buy from PSG.
Juventus were hoping to keep Cuadrado and Rabiot on board, but their off the field problems are likely to force them to sell.

Rabiot came close to joining Manchester United last summer before his move to Old Trafford collapsed.
Meanwhile, Chelsea are long-term admirers of Sandro, who’s currently in his eighth season with the Turin giants.
Should Juventus lose a host of their key players, the report claims that Massimiliano Allegri could look towards giving a chance to youngsters.
