Barca offer £13m for Poulsen
Tuesday 14 July, 2009
Juventus may well have found a buyer for outcast Christian Poulsen, as Barcelona have reportedly offered £13m.
The Danish midfielder was signed a year ago, but Coach Ciro Ferrara confirmed today that he is not in the plans for the new campaign.
“I spoke to Poulsen and made my point of view very clear,” said the tactician. “It is in any case pleasing to see someone train so diligently every day despite being in this difficult situation.”
Now according to Spanish newspaper ‘Sport,’ Barcelona have pinpointed Poulsen as the right alternative to Liverpool’s Argentine Javier Mascherano.
He turned down a proposal from Turkish outfit Fenerbahce last week, but would be far more amenable if the bid were to come from the European Champions.
Juventus could pocket the £13m and re-invest that into a striker or left-back.
