According to reports in Italy, Dejan Stankovic’s prospected move to Juventus is on the verge of collapsing after Bianconeri fans campaigned against the transfer.

Juventus have been in negotiations to sign Inter midfielder
Stankovic for quite some time now, and had been expected to tie up the deal very soon.
The 30-year-old had given his consent to the move and agreed personal terms, and all that was required to complete the deal is for the two club to agree a transfer fee.
However Bianconeri supporters are completely against the idea of signing Stankovic, mainly due to his Inter links, but also because of his dreadful form from last season.
Supporters bombarded fan forums and websites, including Goal.com, threatening to whistle Stankovic every time he touches the ball if he were ever to move to Turin.
It appears that the campaign has worked, and reports in Italy suggest that Juventus transfer director Alessio Secco is ready to pull the plug on the deal.
This is the second time that Juventus fans are rumoured to have influenced the club’s transfer strategy. The Old Lady were also reported to be considering handing over Sebastian Giovinco to Palermo until supporters launched a similar campaign against his sale.
