Juventus locked in crunch talks with Chicharito camp

Juventus have stepped up their pursuit of Manchester United striker Javier Hernandez. After being frustrated in their bid for AS Monaco forward Radamel Falcao, Juve are making Chicharito their priority striker target.

The Bianconeri have registered their interest with United about a loan deal for the Mexican and yesterday were in talks with his representatives.

Juve GM Beppe Marotta and sports director Fabio Paratici were both involved in the phone conference as they moved to convince the player's agents about the opportunity they can offer the striker.

The terms favoured by Juve remain a season-long loan deal with the option to sign permanently in June.
