Juventus To Open Negotiations For Alberto Aquilani

Beppe Marotta has revealed that Juventus remain hopeful of signing permanently on-loan Liverpool midfielder Alberto Aquilani.

It is said that the Premier League club refuse to budge on their settled asking price for the 26 year old Italian international.

However Marotta said: “We believed in him when we took him, he responded in a positive way on the field and we are also pleased to see him restored to the national team.

“We still believe in him and will try to renew his contract. We are going to talk to Liverpool soon.”

Aquilani set to stay at Juventus

Alberto Aquilani, on loan with Juventus, is ready to sign a permanent deal with Serie A club when the transfer window opens, according to the player's agent.



Signed by Rafael Benitez Aquilani from Roma for £20 million in August 2009, the Italy international struggled to establish himself at Anfield.



Aquilani was allowed to return to Serie A by then-Liverpool boss Roy Hodgson last summer after just one season in the Premier League and agent Franco Zavaglia claims his client wants to stay in Turin.



Liverpool are reportedly willing to sell the midfielder for around £14 million.



"On June 30 Juventus will be able to buy Aquilani and they should act now," Zavaglia told Radio Mana Mana.



"They could sign him by making three to four delayed payments, a system which was established last summer.



"The agreement between Liverpool and Juventus is already there, it all depends on the willingness of Juventus.



"I think Aquilani will stay at Juventus and there will not be any obstacles.''
