Palermo president Zamparini rubbishes Kjaer swap talk for Juventus striker Amauri

Palermo president Maurizio Zamparini is insisting only on a straight cash deal for defender Simon Kjaer.

There has been talk of Juventus offering former Rosanero striker Amauri in exchange for the young Dane.

But Zamparini said: “It's all silliness. We want to keep Kjaer and Juventus don't want to let Amauri go.

“The Brazilian will go to the World Cup (with Italy) and I don't believe that the Bianconeri want to lose him so easily.

“Right now the newspapers have need of something to write about and they invent similar deals.”
