According to Tuttosport, Juventus may be set to sign both Christian Poulsen and Xabi Alonso.
The Bianconeri are well known to be in the market for a centre midfielder, and one top-class name will certainly arrive before the start of the new season.
Juve have been in negotiations to sign both Poulsen and Alonso recently, but it was originally thought that only one would be arriving in Turin, most likely the former.
However, Tuttosport claims that the Old Lady may actually bring both midfielders to the Stadio Olimpico.
Sporting director Alessio Secco spent the whole of yesterday in Spain, first in Seville to continue his negotiations for Poulsen, and then in the Basque Country, which is where Alonso is from.
Secco is said to have made an agreement with both players, and all that is required to complete the deal is for a transfer fee to be agreed.
This should not prove too troublesome with Sevilla, who are demanding €10m, while Juve want to pay €8m. However trying to arrange a fee with Liverpool for Alonso is proving very troublesome, with both club’s estimations still far apart.
