Juventus Back On Ujfalusi's Trail
Juventus have re-ignited their interest in Fiorentina defender Tomas Ujfalusi after having searched elsewhere unsuccessfully.
The search for a central defender continues for the Bianconeri, who want to sign more quality players in June.
The need for a stronger squad both in terms of strength and depth cannot be overemphasized, as despite some recent struggles the Bianconeri are still expected to return to the Champions League next season.
With Olof Mellberg almost certain to arrive in summer, the Old Lady will have some cover, but want to strengthen the defensive line further, and Ujfalusi is the man picked to do that.
The Czech Republic defender will almost certainly leave Fiorentina on a free transfer in June, even though he admitted that there still is the possibility that he can sign a new deal with the Viola.
His most likely destination appeared to be Spain with various clubs competing to sign him up, and possibly offering more than what clubs in Italy can.
However, Milan remain watchful, and Juventus have pushed forward their interest in the 29-year-old player and are expected to make a pre-contract offer to the defender in the coming weeks.
Ujfalusi could be interested in joining the Bianconeri, but might wait to ensure they will be playing in the Champions League. They might also need to improve their financial offer.
