Juventus Prepare Bid For Kwadwo Asamoah

Juventus are ready to launch a bid for rising Udinese star Kwadwo Asamoah, but signing him will be less than straight-forward.

Tuttosport claims the talented midfielder, who scored his first Serie A goal during the 3-1 win over Fiorentina last week, is being targeted by the Old Lady in an attempt to strengthen their midfield for next term.

Alessio Secco has already made contact with the Friulani over the availability of Asamoah, but he was warned that signing him will be difficult.

The report suggests Udinese want around €15million, which seems a little too much for the 20-year-old. To complicate matters, voices imply that Inter have also been observing the Ghana international.

The Zebrette are keen to keep their man in Udine, but they may consider selling if an offer which meets their satisfaction arrives on president Giampaolo Pozzo's table.

Juve have revealed they have the money to spend on good players during the summer transfer window as they attempt to rebuild and strengthen the squad for next season.
