Juventus are on the verge of concluding the deal to bring Werder Bremen ace Diego to Turin, according to reports.
Sportmediaset.it claims the Bianconeri are showing signs of urgency as they fight hard to push the deal through.
The report suggests Juve could have the Brazilian ace all wrapped up and in the bag by Easter as they attempt to secure his services for next season. The latest developments come just 24 hours after Diego's father Jair De Cunha claimed his son only wanted to move to Juventus.
With Diego in their pockets, voices from Turin also suggest there could be plans to bring in Valencia's David Silva. Recent speculation regarding Gianluigi Buffon leaving has been rife, and Sportmediaset have added to the confusion by claiming the club will sell their goalkeeper to fund a move for Silva.
Just last week Buffon's agent Silvano Martina said he would consider mega offers for his client. The Bianconeri are keen on strengthening. This season has not gone to plan, and directors at the club will be busy devising schemes for next term as they plan to spend wisely during the summer transfer market.
