Zalayeta-Zanetti Swap Deal In The Pipeline?
8/11/2005 10:47:00 AM
Juventus are reportedly set to offer Marcelo Zalayeta in return for Inter midfielder Cristiano Zanetti.
Bianconeri coach Fabio Capello is desperate to sign the Italian international, and is apparently willing to sacrifice Zalayeta given that he already has four top class strikers at the club.

Inter, meanwhile, are short of a striker having released Christian Vieri this summer.

Zanetti did not feature in Wednesday night’s Champions League match against Shakhtar Donetsk meaning he would not be cup-tied for the rest of the competition.

Zalayeta offered for Zanetti

Juventus are set to offer Inter the services of Marcelo Zalayeta in an effort to land Cristiano Zanetti.

The latter is known to be a target for the Bianconeri after working with boss Fabio Capello at Roma in the past.

Zanetti (pictured) has been linked with the Turin giants for some time who seem to be looking for a new central midfielder.

Although Patrick Vieira and Giuliano Giannichedda have replaced Stephen Appiah and Alessio Tacchinardi this summer, there could be more changes to the Old Lady’s squad.

It is already believed that the champions have offered Fabrizio Miccoli to the San Siro outfit in return for Zanetti.

But it now seems that the Stadio Delle Alpi side are ready to sacrifice Zalayeta as the Nerazzurri continue to look for a new striker.

Boss Roberto Mancini is still one forward short after the departure of Christian Vieri to Milan this summer.

Zanetti’s proposed move to Juventus could still be on as the former Fiorentina player didn’t play in the Champions League last night.

While I'm reluctant to see Zalayeta go, we all should realize that whether this happens or not it will have little bearing on our season.Both are nothing more than fringe players after the players we've acquired lately(Mutu and Vieira in Zala and Zanettis' cases respectively).
