Christian Vieri has surprisingly offered his services to demoted Italian giants and former club Juventus.
The much-travelled striker, currently a free agent after recently rescinding his contract with Sampdoria, is apparently considering a return to the jersey he wore in 1996.
The player’s agent is due to contact the club on Monday afternoon to confirm his client’s availability to play with Juventus – even if it were to be in Serie B.
Juve sporting director Alessio Secco will reportedly listen to the player’s plan, but has not guaranteed that the club will accept his offer.
Vieri signed for Doria at the start of July, accepting a reduced £575,000 salary in return for a one-year deal, but never joined the team for pre-season training.
His contract was finally cancelled in August and rumours suggested he may retire from the game completely.
Vieri turned 33 in July and has also appeared for Torino, Pisa, Ravenna, Venezia, Atalanta, Juventus, Atletico Madrid, Lazio, Inter and Milan, before a brief spell at Monaco that ended with a knee injury which ruled him out of Germany 2006.
