Alonso: Juventus interest
Juventus remain confident of signing Xabi Alonso despite failing, as yet, to agree a fee with Liverpool.
The Spain international had been expected to complete a move to Serie A next week, but talks appear to have stalled.
Liverpool are believed to be holding out for a 20 million euros deal (£15.75m), and Juve’s latest offer falls short of that mark.
Despite the delay in proceedings the Italian club’s general manager Jean-Claude Blanc still believes an agreement can be reached, while he also confirmed that the Turin giants continue to track other options.
Talented
“We’re following more than three footballers,” Blanc told Sky Italia.
“And we’ll see if what you read in the papers comes true or the other names we’re working on.
“Xabi Alonso? It’s an operation that we’re taking forward and we’ll compare him to other deals which could be done.
“We’re looking for a very talented midfielder - there’s not many of those around and some of them aren’t available. We have to talk first with the club and then with the player.
“Only one of these deals will be done.”
