Category: <b>General</b><br><br>Juventus have made a late bid to keep Zlatan Ibrahimovic in Turin by placing a £28m price tag on his head.
Both Milan clubs have both been chasing the 25-year-old forward and plan to take advantage of Ibra’s clear intention to leave the Bianconeri, as confirmed by his agent Mino Raiola.
However, the Old Lady have reiterated that no more stars will be sold, following the illustrious departures of Fabio Cannavaro, Emerson, Gianluca Zambrotta, Lilian Thuram and Adrian Mutu.
But Juventus face a difficult challenge and will have to work hard to convince the striker to stay in Turin to help the team overturn the 17-point deduction and return to Serie A as soon as possible.
They are willing to offer him up to £3.5m per season, compared to the £1.4m Ibrahimovic is paid at the moment.
The player’s agent is scheduled to meet the Juventus managers this week in order to find a solution to the issue.
Juventus have explained their plans for the next season to Ibrahimovic and both Didier Deschamps and Pavel Nedved have been trying to convince him to stay, aware that his talent could be of great use to the team.
But the club is not willing to sell off the player and its shocking request may be a way to scare off Inter and Milan, who are both interested in finalising as soon as possible.
The Nerazzurri may take advantage of the difficult relationship between Milan and Juventus after goalkeeper Christian Abbiati’s surprise transfer to Torino, which also jeopardised Gianluigi Buffon’s move to the Rossoneri side.
Ibrahimovic was signed from Ajax for £11.5m in the summer of 2004 and has also been a target for Manchester United, who are looking for a replacement for Ruud Van Nistelrooy, but the Swede has made no secret of his desire to remain in Italy. <br><br>Source: Football Italia
