Tiago to join Juve, say Lyon Wednesday 20 June, 2007
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
French champions Lyon have revealed that Juventus are very close to signing midfield ace Tiago.
The Bianconeri have been paired with the Portuguese star over the past few weeks after the player himself admitted that his time with the Ligue 1 outfit was over.
“We cannot say that a deal has been finalised, but that is only because there are a few details that still need to be clarified,” said Lyon official Marino Faccioli.
“However, we can semi-officially say that Tiago will join Juventus.”
Bianconeri director general Jean-Claude Blanc has also confirmed that negotiations are underway to bring the 26-year-old to the Stadio Olimpico.
“We are working on this operation and Tiago is moving closer to Juventus,” he declared.
The international turned down the offer of a contract extension at Christmas and is valued at £12m by chief Jean-Michel Aulas.
Tiago, a reported target for Milan as well, joined Lyon in 2005 after appearing for Sporting Braga, Benfica and Chelsea.
The midfielder contributed to his club’s record sixth straight League title last term and played an important role in the Portugal side that reached the semi-finals of last summer’s World Cup.
Juventus are also on the verge of signing Empoli star Sergio Almiron, whose capture is expected to be announced shortly.
