Martin Caceres is a free agent after being let go by Juventus last summer and as a result can be signed outside the transfer window. The central defender was reportedly close to joining AC Milan last month, but despite completing a medical, the move broke down due to Caceres' wage demands. And now the Uruguay international is said to be weighing up offers from two Premier League clubs, thought to be Southampton and Sunderland.
