Barcelona want Juan

Barcelona are reportedly set to replace 36 year old Lilian Thuram with AS Roma defender Juan. The Brazilian is expected to be allowed to leave the Italian giants for around £5 million.

Juan himself will be very interested in joining Barcelona, where one of his close friends Ronaldinho is based.

The player had interested several teams across Europe in January when it was revealed he could leave in the summer, and Bayern Munich were also considering a move for Juan.
