Juve in no rush to dump Miccoli Monday 22 August, 2005
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Juventus are ready to keep Fabrizio Miccoli until January in order to net as big a transfer fee as possible for the player.
The attacking sensation has been available for sale as a result of the club’s numerous attacking options.
A summer move was expected but the champions have so far failed to find a buyer willing to match their asking price.
But Juventus transfer guru Luciano Moggi is in no hurry to get rid of the Italian international forward.
"I won’t exclude the possibility that Miccoli will not only stay with us until January but also play in that time too," said the director general.
"We are in no rush when it comes to Miccoli. When clubs realise they need a scorer, they will contact us and we will sell at the best price."
Miccoli is not needed by boss Fabio Capello who can already count on the services of Alex Del Piero, Adrian Mutu, Zlatan Ibrahimovic, David Trezeguet and Marcelo Zalayeta.
The former Perugia and Fiorentina player has been linked with numerous clubs over the last few months.
Roma, Inter and Palermo were hotly associated in Italy, while Aston Villa and Portuguese giants Benfica are allegedly keen on him.
What Moggi is saying: We're not going to sell him for the amount of money you guys are bidding.
