Inter & Juve After French Youngster
Inter and Juventus have entered the race to sign young Frenchman Sofiane Feghouli...
Aug 20, 2008 9:19:22 AM
The 19-year-old midfielder has been catching the eye with some of his performances, and is of Algerian decent, like another great French midfielder Zinedine Zidane.
Feghouli plays for Grenoble Foot 38 in France's Ligue 1, but is linked with a host of top European clubs. He has attracted a lot of attention and was connected with a move to Ajax, Liverpool, Chelsea and Valencia during the 2007 summer transfer window.
However, now Juventus and Inter seemingly are looking at acquiring the young Frenchman as well, as they feel he has plenty of potential. But it is suspected they will have to fight off plenty of competition for his signature.
It is unknown if either team will table a bid for the youngster this year, as both Juve and Inter have insisted that they are done shopping in the transfer window. Juventus have been associated with Alberto Aquilani and Dejan Stankovic, but neither of their clubs seems willing to let them leave. Meanwhile, Inter currently have plenty of options in midfield with Patrick Vieira, Sulley Muntari, Javier Zanetti, Esteban Cambiasso, Olivier Dacourt, Vitor Hugo Pele, as well as Stankovic.
The player himself has stated he believes his type of playing is best suited to the English Premier League; however, he would likely a jump at any chance to join a top Serie A team.
