Ranieri Admires Senna – Agent

Juventus are well known to have identified a centre midfielder as their primary summer transfer target, and this has led to them being linked with a whole host of players in and around Europe.

It had seemed that deals for both Xabi Alonso and Dejan Stankovic were edging closer to completion, but the former has hit a hitch, while the latter is on the verge of collapse.

One centre midfielder who has been earning rave reviews is Villarreal’s Marco Senna, who has impressed hugely for Spain at Euro 2008.

The player’s agent has revealed that his client is admired by Juventus coach Claudio Ranieri, opening up the possibility of a summer transfer.

“It’s no secret that Senna appeals to Juventus and in particular Claudio Ranieri,” Jose Manuel Butraguenos stated.

“The Juve Coach knows him well and spoke to him about a month ago. I haven’t had any news since then, but we are waiting.

“A lot depends on the club. Senna has proven himself to be one of the best players at the European Championship, but if the two teams found an agreement he would be very willing to join the Bianconeri.”

Senna will turn 32 this summer, but his experience and battle-hardness could prove crucial ahead of the two-pronged attack on Serie A and the Champions League.
