Juventus negotiate for Dzeko?

By Football Italia staff

It’s reported that Juventus are in negotiations with Manchester City to try and bring Edin Dzeko to Turin.

Has struggled to hold down a first team place since joining the English side in 2011, with 55 of his 128 Premier League appearances coming from the bench.

The Bosnian international has nonetheless scored 50 goals in the League, and Calciomercato reports that Juventus are interested in his signature.

The website believes that the Bianconeri are increasingly resigned to Carlos Tevez leaving a year early to join Boca Juniors, while Fernando Llorente will be sold this summer.

The Spaniard arrived on a free transfer before last season, but has struggled this season and could be sold while the club is still likely to make a large profit.

Calciomercato reports that the Old Lady’s general manager Giuseppe Marotta met with officials from Manchester City at a conference of the European Club Association, and Dzeko was discussed.

It is not yet clear whether or not the 29-year-old will be allowed to leave, but the site is sure that he is on the Juventus shortlist alongside Edinson Cavani and Falcao.
