Juventus Confirm Negotiations With Villarreal For Giuseppe Rossi

The New-Jersey born striker could be making a move back to Italy in the near future...

Villarreal striker Giuseppe Rossi has enjoyed plenty of success in Spain, but has not hidden his desire to return to Italy over the past month.

The 22-year-old has impressed for the Italian national team at the Confederations Cup, scoring two goals in a substitute appearance against the United States, prompting a sensational attack from Spanish newspaper AS, declaring him a "traitor".

According to Sky Sport 24, Juventus have confirmed that sporting director Alessio Secco is meeting with Villarreal officials to negotiate a transfer for the former Manchester United and Parma starlet.

The Spanish club have asked for between €15-18 million, plus striker David Trezeguet in exchange.

The Frenchman has been knocked down the pecking order this season in Turin, having suffered from poor form and injury in 2008-09, so the move could potentially suit both players.

Overall, Rossi scored 15 goals in all competitions for the Yellow Submarines this past season.

Napoli Defender Fabiano Santacroce ‘Flattered’ By Juventus’ Interest

The 22-year-old admits he could further his career under Ferrara in Turin...

Press reports yesterday suggested that Napoli centre-back Fabiano Santacroce could join Juventus as part of the deal that should see full-back Paolo De Ceglie move to the San Paolo.

Santacroce’s agent, Antonio Dall’Aglio, quickly moved to reject the claims, but the former Brescia man cannot deny that a call from the Old Lady would be tempting.

“When I read that Juve like me and that I am on [Ciro] Ferrara’s hit-list, I have to say I felt proud, very proud,â€

Udinese Star Gaetano D’Agostino: Juventus, Hurry Up

The Italian international insists he is keen to join the Old Lady and hopes the impasse will be resolved soon.

Negotiations between Juventus and Udinese over playmaker Gaetano D’Agostino stalled last week, just when the parties seemed close to reaching an agreement, and the player has urged a speedy resolution.

Juve have put the deal on hold to move in on other objectives, namely Real Madrid midfielder Mahamadou Diarra and Villarreal striker Giuseppe Rossi.

But Bianconeri director of sport Alessio Secco returned from Spain yesterday and discussions with Udinese are expected to resume over the next few days.

“Am I still optimistic? I do have a bit of anxiety,â€
