Juventus are set for a super-summit with Liverpool to discuss deals for Glen Johnson, Daniel Agger and Alberto Aquilani.
A deal for Italy midfielder Aquilani would be the most straight forward to complete, with Juve insisting on a £13million option to buy when they took him on loan for the season, but Liverpool could rue losing him after impressive performances in Serie A.
The Italians would also like to sign Johnson in January to ease defensive problems but a reported £12m price tag is way beyond what they want to pay.
Juve are hording money to sign a striker, with Wolfsburg’s Edin Dzeko £33m-rated still top of their wish list, but strengthening the defence is arguably a bigger priority.
They are keen on centre back Agger and like the fact that he can fill in at left back, but they fear Wolfsburg are already closing in on deal for the Denmark international.
Agger, 25, seems to have fallen out of favour with boss Roy Hodgson but has warned he won’t be force out of Anfield.
Juve are wary that the good relationship they had with Liverpool’s old regime means they are starting from square one since the takeover with NESV.
However, there have been previous links between the Turin club and Damien Comolli - the new Liverpool director of football strategy - who was in talks with Juve about Saint-Etienne midfielder Dimitri Payet when in his former job earlier this year.
