Juve drop Rossi for Vucinic?[/FONT]
[FONT=Arial,Helvetica,Geneva,Swiss,SunSans-Regular]Mirko Vucinic has reportedly leapfrogged Giuseppe Rossi to become the top Juventus transfer target.
[/FONT] [FONT=Arial,Helvetica,Geneva,Swiss,SunSans-Regular]The Bianconeri have made it clear they want to bring in a new striker over the summer and, after Sergio Aguero became too expensive, they whittled the list down to two.
[/FONT]
[FONT=Arial,Helvetica,Geneva,Swiss,SunSans-Regular]Rossi had been the favourite, but Tuttosport claim today that talks with Villarreal have hit problems over the €30m price-tag.
[/FONT]
[FONT=Arial,Helvetica,Geneva,Swiss,SunSans-Regular]Vucinic would cost €10m less than Italian international Rossi, as he has already declared he wants to leave Roma.
[/FONT]
[FONT=Arial,Helvetica,Geneva,Swiss,SunSans-Regular]However, the Giallorossi are eager to sell the Montenegrin overseas rather than reinforce a direct Serie A competitor.
[/FONT]
[FONT=Arial,Helvetica,Geneva,Swiss,SunSans-Regular]It is Vucinic’s tactical versatility that has convinced Coach Antonio Conte, as he can play the support striker role or on the left side of midfield in that 4-2-4 system.[/FONT]
