Blanc Flies To Liverpool For Alonso
According to reports in Italy, Juventus director general Jean-Claude Blanc has flown to Liverpool in a bid to sign Xabi Alonso.
It is no secret that one of Juventus’ main aims in the summer transfer market is to buy a top-class centre midfielder.
This has led to a host of players being linked to the club, including Diego, Rafael van der Vaart, Frank Lampard and Marek Hamsik.
Another player who has also been heavily associated recently is Liverpool’s Xabi Alonso. This morning’s Italian press claims that Blanc has flown out to Liverpool and is hopeful of tying up a deal for the Spaniard.
Blanc has offered just under €14m for Alonso, while Liverpool are demanding €17.5m. Given this small difference in figures, it is believed that it should not take long before a compromise can be found.
Juventus already conducted business with Liverpool in January of this year when they signed Momo Sissoko for €13m. The Bianconeri, who are just hours away from completing the capture of Palermo striker Amauri, are also said to be heavily interested in Chelsea left back Wayne Bridge.
