Barcelona have reportedly sneaked ahead of Chelsea and Real Madrid in the race to snap up Juve’s want-away stars.
Two representatives from the Spanish giants arrived in Turin yesterday and discussed a possible move for Lilian Thuram and Gianluca Zambrotta.
It has been suggested that Juve would rather sell to the Catalan club than allow Fabio Capello to lure the Bianconeri’s key players to the Bernabeu.
Juve are said to be demanding around £13.5m for the defensive pair of Thuram and Zambrotta and a similar fee for the services of David Trezeguet.
All eyes will now be on Chelsea and Real Madrid who have also expressed an interest in Zambrotta. Real director Predrag Mijatovic is due to fly to Turin on Thursday.
