Xabi Alonso’s proposed move from Liverpool to Juventus
could be off with an announcement expected later on Saturday that
the Bianconeri have signed Christian Poulsen from
Sevilla.
Juve have been in the market for a midfielder and have held
talks with both players, but it is either one or the other and The
Old Lady have plumped for Poulsen.
Reports in Spain claim Poulsen has signed a double-your-money
four-year contract with Juve after the Serie A side agreed to pay
Sevilla €10 million (£8 million).
The transfer will end a hugely successful association
between Poulsen and Sevilla.
Since signing on a Bosman free transfer from Schalke two
years ago, the Denmark international has gone on to win four
trophies and establish himself as one of Europe's best holding
midfielders.
