Cassano: Juventus or bust
The Italian looks set for a move away from the Stadio Olimpico with his current deal expiring in 2006.
The Giallorossi have apparently reached an agreement regarding a £18million switch to the Bernabeu, but Cassano says he won’t go to Spain.
"I’ve been informed of the agreement between Roma and Real, but why didn’t anyone tell me? This all seems very strange," he told Eurosports.com. "I was contacted by Real in January, but they considered my demands as too high. It’s odd that they are interested again after I promised myself to Juventus.
"The Bianconeri have been straight with me from the start and Roma know what my problems are. Therefore I won’t change my mind - I want Juventus." Fabio Capello made the switch to Delle Alpi this year, so did Emerson and Zebina, and Cassano knows that moving to their archrivals will not go down too well with the Roma supporters.
However, he says he is only interested in what is best for his career. "It isn’t my fault if there is great rivalry between Juventus and Roma," he added. "It is just a professional choice of mine. The fact that Capello, Emerson and Zebina are there is simply coincidental. I want to join Juve and I just ask Roma to make that happen."

Juve look to turn fortunes around
Its been a bad year for Juve, after ex-manager Fabio Capello, sued the club following his sacking at the end of last season. The Turin giants, turned to former coach Lippi in there bid to turn the fortunes around, after 7 straight defeats on the bounce, towards the end of last season, saw them fail to even qualify for the UEFA Cup.
With the forced retirement of Del Piero, after he damanged his crutial ligaments in both knees, after a horror tackle by Inter's Materazzi, which saw the player banned for 2 years, Juve were left suprisingly lightweight in attack, suffering humiliating home defeats to Roma and Messina, 4-0 in both games. Whilst the latter went on to claim a place in the UEFA Cup.
Manager Marcello Lippi, blamed the clubs mis-fortunes on former coach Fabio Capello's lack of disipline, which saw several bust-ups between players and coachs towards the end of last season.
Lippi: Fabio (Capello) madesome very poor judgements in his handling of players, towards the end of last season, which caused for a lack of team spirit in the dressing room'.
Fabio Capello even went on to beg former club, AS Roma, eventually Serie A champions, to allow him to return in some position at the club. Roma President Sensi, refused to allow Capello to return, forcing Capello to seek employment elsewhere. He was later appointed manager of Real Madrid, who went on to be relegated from La Liga.
On a journey back to Madrid, from Barcelona. Madrid's team plane, mysteriously came down in bad conditions. All players were rescued from the crash site, however manager Capello was never found again. Some players said they saw him 'sneaking out, in the middle of the night'. Capello is pre-sumed drowned!
