Werder refute Diego ‘quotes’
Werder Bremen are furious at recent Press reports linking star midfielder Diego with a move to Juventus and the player has denied quotes attributed to him.
The Old Lady have made no secret of their desire to lure the 22-year-old talent in the summer as they look to strengthen their squad for a Scudetto push.
While Bremen have always insisted that Diego is not for sale, Press reports have suggested that the Weserstadion outfit wouldn’t be able to refuse a sizeable bid.
Last week, quotes from Diego emerged in the Italian Press admitting he would relish a move to Turin, but now there are different noises coming from Germany.
“The stories are made up and I wouldn’t have said certain things due to my respect for this club,” a statement from Diego reads on the club’s website.
“I will just say what Diego has repeated on TV and that is that he wants to stay with us,” Werder sporting director Klaus Allofs added in the Corriere dello Sport.
“Even if Juventus were to offer more than £20m, we wouldn’t be ready to do business.”
There are reports that Bremen Coach Thomas Schaaf was incensed by the publication of stories linking Diego with a summer exit just days before Sunday’s crunch Bundesliga clash against Bayern Munich.
The big game at the Allianz Arena finished 1-1 with Diego on target in the sixth minute.

I'm sure we could find a makeweight to sweeten the deal with a player plus cash offer. Dont think we could afford Diego with an all cash offer. Who knows? We may have held on to Tiago for precisely that reason. And I dont think Werder would mind 12-15m + Tiago. That's as good a deal they'd find in Europe, unless Calderon steps in with that unbelievably large ATM stuck up his derriere.
Having said that, I dont see any other alternative for us, but to sign Diego. VdV shouldnt even be under the scanner, when Diego is a possibility.

do not fall in this trap, before you start cursing Secco or anyone for that matter please realise that this is the name of the game. Of course Werder don't want to sell their best player, they are in the middle of a struggle with Bayern
I wouldn't trust any report that hits the media untill the summer, they only publish loads of crap these days to fill all their free space
last week they told us Diego was coming and now they all report that he is not available, 2 non-stories that made them a lot of money
no player is going to decide where he will play next season at this stage
untill the next mercato it is only a guess or wishfull thinking
