The agent of Sporting Lisbon midfielder Miguel Veloso has revealed the interest of Juventus. Fiorentina have been locked in talks with Sporting over a fee for the Portugal international, whose agent, Paulo Barbosa, revealed: "Yes, it's true. Juventus are also interested in the boy.

"Just like Inter and Fiorentina. In Italy, he is courted by these three teams."

Fiorentina remain favourites for Veloso, whose price-tag has dropped dramatically over the last six months.
