Juventus are ready to launch a January transfer bid for unsettled
Liverpool midfielder Momo Sissoko.
The Mali international, who recently signed a new four-year
contract at Anfield, revealed yesterday that he now regretted
rejecting a move to the Bianconeri in the summer.
I should have accepted a move to Juventus, said Sissoko. Not
moving to Juve was a massive error on my part.
It seems that Juventus have taken note of the Sissokos comments
and are ready to revive their bid for the energetic
midfielder.
Bianconeri director of sport Alessio Secco is currently in London,
supposedly negotiating a deal to bring Chelseas Frank Lampard to
Turin, however he may now take a trip up the M1 to visit
Liverpool.
Juventus will require an extra centre-midfielder in January as
Portuguese flop Tiago Mendes seems certain to leave the club.
Sissoko has worked with Coach Claudio Ranieri before at Valencia
and could provide the power and vigour that the Bianconeri require
in the middle-of-the-park.
