Roma and Juve duel over Barzagli
Thursday 1 April, 2010
Roma and Juve are battling it out to sign Wolfsburg centre-back Andrea Barzagli this summer, according to several reports in the Italian media.
The 28-year-old was a member of the Italy squad that won the World Cup in 2006.
He left Palermo for Germany two years ago and helped Wolfsburg win their first ever Bundesliga title last season.
Juventus are in the market for a centre-back this summer, as they are not expected to extend Fabio Cannavaro's existing deal.
Roma are monitoring that situation and may well swoop for Cannavaro if he becomes available, but in the meantime they are working under the impression that Barzagli is their No 1 target.
The Giallorossi are apparently looking to sell Philippe Mexes this summer in a bid to raise funds and strengthen the squad in other areas.
They value the Frenchman at around €15m, almost double the asking price being touted for Barzagli.
Fiorentina are also in the mix, although they remember how Barzagli rejected the chance to join them in 2008.

Juve plan Lyon raid
Thursday 1 April, 2010
Juventus are planning on raiding Lyon this summer with Michel Bastos and Jeremy Toulalan in their sights.
The Bianconeri's vice-general manager Roberto Bettega was at the Gerland on Tuesday to watch Lyon's Champions League quarter-final against Bordeaux.
Bettega is widely thought of as being in charge of Juventus's reconstruction plans and Tuttosport understands that he has identified Bastos as the long-term heir to Pavel Nedved, who retired last season.
Juventus have lacked any sort of presence on the wings this year and Bastos' ability to play at full-back and further up the flanks makes him especially attractive.
However, as Tuttosport acknowledges, any transfer for Bastos will be tough to pull off as Lyon paid Lille €18m for his signature last summer.
Juventus' search for a midfield playmaker in the Andrea Pirlo mould has also led them to Lyon where Toulalan is widely regarded as the best in that position.
The 26-year-old has been with Lyon for four years and might now be looking for a new challenge after winning Le Championnat on two occasions.
