According to the Italian press, the national team of the country and Milan's "Inter" striker Christian Vieri could soon move to Turin.
There have been quite a few questions about the future of the 30-year-old Italian for some time, as he clashed with the team's coach Alberto Zaccheroni. Also, this season the player did not play particularly well, and often seemed to lack "fire."
It is said that in exchange for Vieri, "Inter" would receive striker Fabian Carini and 7.5 million euros.
However, yesterday "Inter" president Massimo Moratti said that there was never any meeting with the directors of "La Vecchia Signora" (Juventus). But this morning it was already reported on his words: "We have received offers from many clubs, but nothing has changed. There is nothing on the negotiation table. Much will depend on the player's desires. Now we are just considering. And since he is with the national team, we should leave him in peace. Will we sell him? Facchetti ("Inter" president - author's note) knows more than me, but we would like to build a team with Vieri in it."
These rumors were also commented on by the leader of "Juve": "I would be very happy if Vieri joined us, even if we already have a group of good players in the club. Still, this is not the first time the newspapers say that "Juventus" is interested in Vieri. A similar thing happened last year." - said Del Piero.
Meanwhile, Di Vaio says he would be willing to move to "Inter": "If I had to leave "Juve" I would only move to a top-class team, and that means "Milan" or "Inter". I could play alongside Adriano, like when I played at the "Parma" club. But now I wouldn't want these rumors to distract me during Euro 2004."
