The club has all but abandoned its push for Edin Dzeko from Wolfsburg and complained at the limit of only one new non-EU player per season.

Instead the single prized slot will go to CSKA Moscow winger Krasic, who is a Serbian international.

For some time Krasic has made it clear he wants to join Juve and negotiations over a €15m offer are set to resume tomorrow.

Meanwhile, the Bianconeri are looking to resolve their left-back problem, as Fabio Grosso is on his way out.

This leaves only Paolo De Ceglie in that position, so the Corriere dello Sport claims they’ve targeted Hamburg’s Aogo.

Aogo can also play in a more advanced role wide midfield and would be available for around €8m.
