The 21-year-old young central defender has recently caught the eye of the Turin giants in Serie B action for highflying Spezia.
Other Italian top-flight teams have been alerted, but Juventus are keen to secure his signature before the transfer deadline slams shut tonight. The U21 Italian international, a product of the Spezia youth academy, is valued at €1.5 million (US$1.55m).
Spezia, who lie in third place in Serie B behind leaders Sassuolo and second-placed Pisa, would not wish to lose their star player during the current campaign.
If the Bianconeri can reach an agreement, the deal will be to loan Bertola immediately back to the Ligurian outfit for the rest of the season.
His arrival in Turin next summer could make him an exciting prospect, having already bagged a hat-trick of goals for Spezia this term.
Atalanta appear to be Juventus’ main rivals to land Bertola, with head coach Gian Piero Gasperini urgently in need of adding a defender as his squad is injury ravaged in that department.
Spezia losing Bertola mid-season could jeopardise their chances of securing a promotion to Serie A, which makes a move to Juventus favourable over Atalanta and other Italian top flight teams.
