Juve: keen on Romagnoli. Inter: update on Konoplyanka
Due to the injuries suffered by 33-year-old Andrea Barzagli and 27-year-old Martin Caceres, Juventus –as reported earlier- are intentioned to sign a new defender: according to La Gazzetta dello Sport, their main options for such position are Lille 25-year-old Simon Kjaer and 22-year-old Fabian Schar, whose contract with FC Basel will expire at the end of the current season; on the contrary, as reported by Fichajes.net, the bianconeri are focused on Dynamo Kyiv 23-year-old Aleksandar Dragovic and FC Porto 29-year-old Rolando; moreover, the Serie A defending champions are interested in AS Roma 19-year-old Alessio Romagnoli, currently on loan at Sampdoria, as confirmed by his agent Mauro Cavalli to calciomercato.com. The Piedmont’s club is also seeking a center back, considering the situation of 30-year-old Stephan Lichtsteiner, and, as outlined by the same media, are also thinking about Envigado 18-year-old Felipe Tello. Finally, as reported earlier, Juve are concretely interested in HNK Rijeka 23-year-old striker Andrej Kramaric, but, still according to “La Gazzetta”, to obtain the Croatia international will have to compete with Chelsea, Queens Park Rangers and Tottenham. As well known, Inter Milan are concretely interested in Dnipro Dnipropetrovsk 25-year-old winger Yevhen Konoplyanka: as outlined by gianlucadimarzio.com, the Ukrainian club is trying to extend the player’s contract to sell him for a higher fee at the end of the season, and, even in January won’t let him go for less then 10 million euros.
