Juve eye Aogo after contract impasse
Germany international Aogo has two years left on his current deal and made no secret of his disappointment at the club’s failure to extend it.
"I have stressed often enough that I want to stay at Hamburg, and this has not changed," Aogo, 23, was quoted as saying by Tuttosport. "I do not know why an extension has so far failed to materialise."
Negotiations are reportedly ongoing, but Tuttosport claimed that Aogo’s adviser Gordon Stipic is talking to Serie A giants Juve.
But Hamburg do not have to sell, with billionaire financier Klaus Michael reportedly pumping an additional £13 million into the club for transfer fees and contract extensions.
"The best thing for me would be to stay at Hamburg," Aogo added.
"It is a multicultural city, the fans are great, and the conditions at the club are exceptional."
