Man City Transfer News: Juventus Want Aleksandar Kolarov?

by Joseph Dempsey

Daily Mail. The Italians were also interested in team-mate Carlos Tevez, but look set to miss out on the Argentinian, who is nearing a move to rivals AC Milan. The Turin outfit won Serie A last season by nine points ahead of runners up Napoli but are keen to bolster their squad ahead of next season's title defence. And they are now set to renew their interest in Kolarov, despite already having wing back Kwadwo Asamoah in their ranks. Club officials see the utility player as a perfect addition to give their squad strength in depth, and the Italian champions are willing to offer ‚10 million for the 27-year old, who has gained a reputation as a free-kick specialist. His contract doesn't expire until 2015, but having played second fiddle to Gael Clichy in recent times, could be tempted by a move away. The Serbian made 32 appearances for the Citizens last season and also netted six goals.
