Ok here it is...
Cigarini Or Volpi If Tiago Leaves Juve
Italian sports daily 'Corriere dello sport' reported that during the night Atletico Madrid made important steps forward in trying to sign Tiago Mendes from Juventus, despite sporting director Alessio Secco yesterday declaring that the player will remain in Turin.
Tiago's future at Juventus remains a mystery as apparently Atletico Madrid have accelerated their negotiations in order to sign the midfielder during this transfer window.
If this transfer goes through, the Bianconeri will try to sign an Italian midfielder in order to make the squad as competitive as possible.
For this reason, Ranieri has indicated two possible targets: Luca Cigarini (21-years-old, Parma) and Sergio Volpi (33-years-old, Sampdoria).
For the former player, Parma are asking 20m Euros and that might be too expensive for the Old Lady's budget. Juventus could try to part exchange a player to decrease the expense, but that would require time and the transfer window will close in a couple of days.
Therefore, it would be easier for the Bianconeri to go for the Sampdoria player who would not cost much and would be willing to be a reserve of Mohammed Sissoko and Cristiano Zanetti.
