Juventus: lead for Iturbe. Roma: keen on Grenier
Awaiting for tonight’s Serie A clash against Napoli, Juventus remain extremely active on the transfer market: the bianconeri keep on seeking a winger, and the new name for such position, as highlighted by calciomercato.com, is the one of 24 year old Evgen Konoplyanka, whose contract with Dnipro Dnipropetrovsk will expire in December 2014 and is valued about 15 million euros; another offensive player tracked by the Serie A defending champions is 20 year old Juan Iturbe, actually playing for Verona on loan with right to buy from FC Porto: the Venetian club will be able to sign the Argentina under 20 international on permanent deal by paying 15 million euros to the Dragoes, otherwise the Portuguese club will add to the player’s contract a 60 million euros termination clause. For this reason, as reported by the Daily Express, both Juve and Liverpool are trying to negotiate with the gialloblu, and the Serie A defending champions are ready to offer them the loan of some youngsters. Another priority for the Piedmont’s club is the sign of a midfielder, and, as reported by Tuttosport, there is still a possibility to obtain Paris Saint-Germain 32 year old Thiago Motta.
Also Serie A current leaders AS Roma are seeking a midfielder, and, according to the French press are keen on Lyon 22 year old Clement Grenier, also considered a Napoli and Arsenal target.
