Juventus: duel with Bayern for two strikers. AC Milan: good-bye Jorginho?
As well known, Juventus have already signed for the next season Athletic Bilbao 27 year old striker Fernando Llorente: but the Spain international doesn’t seem intended to be the only reinfocerment for the Serie A defending champions’offensive line: yesterday, both Borussia Dortmund Sports Director Michael Zorc and the Bundesliga defending champions striker Robert Lewandowski have denied that there is already an agreement for the transfer of the Poland international to Bayern Munich at the end of the season: as highlighted by calciomercato.com, then, there is still a chance for both the bianconeri and Manchester United to compete with the Bavarian club for the 24 year old. Moreover, another possible target for both the Piedmontese club and Die Roten is Liverpool 26 year old Luis Suarez: after last night’s game against Spain, the Uruguay international has been quite elusive about his future, by declaring that he is very attached to the Reds, even if they are no longer a top club. Regarding the midfield, Tuttosport has revealed this morning that Juve have refused some important offers made by the most important European clubs for 27 year old Claudio Marchisio, while, as reported by La Stampa, 20 year old Marco Verratti has declared that for the moment he is only sure about remaining at Paris Saint-Germain until June, and that he is honored of Juve’s interest.
As highlighted by calciomercato.com, AC Milan are dealing with some difficult situations: 26 year old Ignazio Abate and 30 year old Luca Antonini are required in Russia, and this latter seems to have still some chances to move immediately. Different situations for 25 year old midfielder Kevin-Prince Boateng and 28 year old forward Robinho, whose contracts will expire in 2014: the Brazil international seems still intended to move back to his homecountry, while the German-born Ghanian player is tracked by both Bayern Munich and Galatasaray, so the Lombard club is undecided between extending his contract or selling him next Summer. Finally, the rossoneri risk to loose their chance to sign Hellas Verona midfielder Jorginho, whose agents, according to Tuttosport, are expected to meet Paris Saint-Germain executives.
