Juve open Rossi door
Juventus President Giovanni Cobolli Gigli has indicated that his club will make a bid to sign Giuseppe Rossi in the summer of 2010.
The Turin giants are expected to refresh their attacking options at the end of the season with Alex Del Piero being a year older and David Trezeguet on his way out of the club.
Juventus were already associated with the Villarreal ace after his exploits for the Azzurri at the Confederations Cup and Cobolli Gigli has got the rumour mill in motion yet again.
“Giuseppe Rossi could be of Juventus quality, however, let me just enjoy our latest summer signings first,” he noted.
The Turin giants have invested heavily over the last few months in a bid to make a serious charge for the Scudetto.
Having finished second behind Inter last term, the Turin outfit spent over £20m each on Diego from Werder Bremen and Fiorentina’s Felipe Melo.
They also netted Fabio Cannavaro on a Bosman from Real Madrid and completed the transfer day capture of Lyon’s Fabio Grosso.
Rossi is said to be keen on a return to the peninsula, after a successful loan spell at Parma, and would have no objection to a Juve switch.
Juventus are also understood to be monitoring the form and availability of a number of other attackers.
Brazilian international Luis Fabiano has been associated this week and he joins a list which includes Palermo’s Edinson Cavani, Ezequiel Lavezzi of Napoli and Bordeaux’s Fernando Cavenaghi.
The latter, who will appear against Juventus in the Champions League, was followed by the Italians while he was still in Argentina with River Plate before he tried his luck at Spartak Moscow.
