Juventus: duel with Real for Halilovic. Inter Milan: Fernando gets farther
Another young talent tracked by Juventus is Dynamo Zagreb attacking midfielder Alen Halilovic: the Croatian club’s Sports Director Zoran Mamic has declared to Tribal Football that also Real Madrid are keen on the 16 year old and that the Spanish club has already offered him a long-term deal. For the bianconeri it will be also difficult to sign 23 year old winger Theo Walcott, whose contract with Arsenal will expire at the end of the current season: the Gunners manager Arsene Wenger has in fact declared that he wants the England national to remain at the “Emirates stadium”, and that he has already expressed his will to the player and to his agents, although some time will be needed to find a solution.
As well known, Inter Milan are seeking a high-quality midfielder, and considering the recent declarations recently released by Corinthians 24 year old Paulinho and by his executives, a valid option, in addition to PSV Eindhoven 22 year old Kevin Strootman, could be FC Porto 25 year old Fernando Francisco Reges, but today the Brazilian-born Portuguese player has declared to RTP that he wants to respect the two more years that remain on his contract. Moreover, interviewed by Radio2Rai, Manchester City manager Roberto Mancini has excluded the possibility of his return to Inter and has declared that the nerazzurri must be patient with their actual coach.
