Juventus have set their sights on signing Bayer Leverkusen forward Stefan Kiessling as a possible replacement for David Trezeguet, who has expressed his desire to leave the Bianconceri at the completion of the current season.

The 24-year-old is being touted as the next Rudi Voeller, and the Old Lady want to pounce and attain his signature before any other club, according to Virgilio Sport.

Having already scored eight goals in 12 games in the Bundesliga, Arsenal are also closely monitoring the blond-haired centre-forward.

Trezeguet has been linked with a return to France, to see out his playing career, and has until the January transfer window to finalise this decision, so that Juventus can make the appropriate provisions.
