Juventus: problems for Ogbonna. AC Milan: sprint for Diamanti
Juventus are not only seeking a new forward but are also working to reinforce their team regarding other positions: for what concerns the defense, for example, the bianconeri keep on tracking Torino 25 year old Angelo Ogbonna; but there seem to be some problems in the negotiation for the Italy international; if the granata have in fact already talked with the agent of 23 year old striker Ciro Immobile, but, regarding another Juve player that should be involved in the negotiation, 27 year old wingback Reto Ziegler, they don’t seem capable to afford the player’s salary. The Serie A defending champions also need to reinforce their flanks, but one of their main targets for such position, 25 year old Juan Guillermo Cuadrado, actually at Fiorentina on loan with right to buy form Udinese, has expressed his wish, as reported by La Gazzetta dello Sport, to remain in Florence. On the contrary, regarding the offensive line, the Piedmontese club has still a chance, according to Tuttosport, to sign Manchester City 29 year old Carlos Tevez, thanks to the good relations between its Sports Director Fabio Paratici and the Ctizens executives. For what concerns the possible departures, also Flamengo, according to Lancenet, are keen on 29 year old midfielder Felipe Melo, while 21 year old forward Manolo Gabbiadini, last season on loan at Bologna, is tempted by Borussia Dortmund.
The bianconeri are also seeking an attacking midfielder, but, as declared to Radio Sportiva by Il Resto del Carlino journalist Stefano Biondi, they have been overtaken by AC Milan in the hunt for Bologna 30 year old Alessandro Diamanti. The rossoneri, according to the same media, are also in the lead for Sampdoria 22 year old left back Vasco Regini.
