    Now the 2012/2013 season is officially over for Juventus, who are then working to build a team that will be able to conquire its 30th Italian title and be competitive in the Champions League too. The Piedmontese club’s executives, as well known, are first of all seeking a new forward, and, as reported by Tuttosport, they have intensified their contacts with Real Madrid for 25 year old Gonzalo Higuain; the bianconeri will try to understand how to start a negotiation with the Spanish club by verifying its real interest for 25 year old midfielder Arturo Vidal, 29 year old right back Stephan Lichtsteiner and 33 year old midfielder Andrea Pirlo; it seems certain that the player will leave the merengues this Summer, and Turin remains his most probable destination even if Arsenal are still tracking him. According to the same media, also Manchester City 29 year old Carlos Tevez, despite his latest declarations, remains a valid option, even if also Shakhtar Donetsk seem to be interested in the Argentina international. But the first choice of the Italian champions remains Fiorentina 23 year old Stevan Jovetic, who, as reported again by the Piedmontese paper, will soon talk to his current club’s executives; the viola, for the moment, don’t seem intentioned to yield the Montenegro international to  their historical rivals, but the player’s agent, Fali Ramadani, can count on the fact that the Tuscan club wants to extend the contract of another one of his clients, 21 year old attacking midfielder Adem Ljajic.
