Juve leading Diego chase
04 Apr 2008 - 10:14:07
Juventus have emerged as the favourites to land Werder Bremen's Brazilian playmaker Diego.
The 23-year-old former FC Porto star looks increasingly likely to leave the Bundesliga club next summer, despite being under contract with Bremen until 2011.
Diego's father, Djair de Cunha, told Bild: "So much has been said and not all of it is true.
"But Juve sporting director Alessio Secco has already been to Bremen and talked to Werder president Klaus Allofs.
"The situation isn't good enough for Diego. His dream is to win in Europe."
Diego has been with Werder for just two seasons, scoring 29 goals in 78 league and European appearances for the club.
