Juve offer for Aquilani rejected

"Juventus tried to enquire about him in the correct way when Giovanni Cobolli Gigli asked Rosella Sensi, but he’s not going anywhere," Daniele Prade told Sky Italia.

"The Sensi family has made it clear Aquilani is not for sale."

Meanwhile, Juventus and Italy keeper Gianluigi Buffon praised Aquilani as he hopes to see the 24-year-old midfielder in Turin.

"I still hope he will arrive, because in my view in a couple of years he’ll become one of the best in the world in his position," enthused the goalkeeper in Tuttosport.

"I think the administration know that Aquilani deserves a major economic push. We’ll see what happens."

In addition to Mohamed Sissoko, the Old Lady have already signed holding midfielder Christian Poulsen, but Claudio Ranieri seems to be eyeing more men in that position.
