Juve, Roma & Viola Target Vargas Leaving In The Summer – Agent
Juan Manuel Vargas, the player nicknamed ‘Catania’s Roberto Carlos’, will leave Sicily in the summer according to his agent Carlos Alberto Delgato.
The Catania star has probably been the best-left back in Serie A so far this season, and he has been a complete revelation since moving to Italy from Colon de Santa Fe in 2006.
The 24-year-old has attracted the interest of a host of top European clubs, including Juventus, Roma, Liverpool and Fiorentina.
“For me personally, I have not heard anything from Fiorentina,” Delgato told Firenzeviola.it.
“Although I cannot possibly know if they have spoken directly with Catania.”
Vargas’ brilliant and skilful raids down the left flank has led to speculation that he could leave his current club this month, however Delgato believes that a move won’t tale place until the summer.
“My client has a contract until 2010. In Catania he feels good but after two seasons it will be time for a change, so I think in the summer he will leave the Sicilian club,” Delgato explained.
“It will be difficult however for a transfer to take place as early as the winter market.”
Vargas has won 15 caps for the Peruvian national team, scoring two goals, including the equaliser against Brazil in the recent 1-1 World Cup qualifying draw.
