Antonio Cassano

Juventus are keeping an eye on Sampdoria ace Antonio Cassano as the player's agent Beppe Bozzo pushes his client towards Turin.

The Bianconeri are looking for a creative playmaker for next season as Pavel Nedved is set to retire. A number of reports have linked 'Il Talentino di Bari' to the Old Lady, but he will not be cheap.

Tuttosport claim Juve are keeping Cassano on their summer hit list, and his agent is keen on the move.

"Juventus know Cassano well and they know he is always well liked by everyone," Bozzo told Tuttosport.

"Samp have given the player a regular role, and the results can be seen."

Juve have been treading carefully as potential transfers such as Cassano's will be difficult to push through. It is believed Samp want no less than €20 million for their man. However, the Bianconeri will need to offload some players in order to make up the funds for Cassano.

In addition, Werder Bremen ace Diego is also on the Italian club's radar.
