my head is also strange 
Newly promoted Juventus have reportedly agreed personal terms with Rio Mavuba of Bordeaux.
The Bianconeri are planning to strengthen their squad in view of next season’s Serie A campaign and have targeted the 23-year-old.
The midfielder, who is considered as one of the most promising Ligue 1 stars in circulation, is contracted to Bordeaux until 2009.
However, a report in Le Parisien claims that the Frenchman, who was born on a boat in international waters off the Angolan coast, is on his way to Turin.
The French newspaper reports that the youngster, valued at £7m, has discussed personal terms with the Old Lady – even if Bordeaux have yet to okay the deal.
“Juventus are the club of my dreams, although I would also enjoy playing in a side like Arsenal or Real Madrid,” Mavuba had declared in the past.
Juventus are also being paired with Lyon midfielder Alou Diarra after catching the eye of Bianconeri sporting director Alessio Secco.
However, the World Cup finalist may opt to remain with the French champions seeing that boss Gerard Houllier – whom he had a frosty relationship with – resigned on Friday.
Diarra, just 14 Ligue 1 games this term, only arrived last summer after signing a contract until June 2010.
