Juventus Eye Real Madrid Striker Karim Benzema - Report
Bianconeri ponder Benzema - Amauri swap...
Juventus have increased their interest in Real Madrid striker Karim Benzema, reports Il Corriere dello Sport.
Bianconeri general director Giuseppe Marotta closed the door on Edin Dzeko last week, claiming he was beyond the club's means.
Wolfsburg want €40 million for the Bosnian. Dzeko pleaded with Juve to continue their interest on Turesday night. "I hope that my future is resolved in one way or another over the next 10 days," he said. "Italy? Everything is possible, we will see." But despite Dzeko's plea, Juventus have turned their attention to Madrid.
Benzema has not had the best of years by any means, and Jose Mourinho is thinking of using him as a pawn for a possible swap deal for Amauri, who on Monday said he was not keen on leaving Juventus.
Nevertheless, Juve's search for a striker continues and Benzema could attract Luigi Del Neri's attention.
Sampdoria's Giampaolo Pazzini and Manchester City hitman Emmanuel Adebayor have also been linked with the club.
Meanwhile, negotiations for Milos Krasic continue. The CSKA Moscow winger has made it clear he only wants Juventus. And it's down to the Old Lady to move forward and close the deal.
"I am waiting for Juventus. I cannot wait until everything is resolved. I have been waiting two months to fulfil my objective."
The Bianconeri are set to complete their move for Krasic once they settle the list of departing players.
