Liverpool And Juventus Prepare Swap Deal For Outcasts Alberto Aquilani And Felipe Melo


Liverpool and Juventus are prepared to set-up a swap deal to end the nightmare spells of Alberto Aquilani and Felipe Melo at the clubs, according to Tuttosport.

Both endured a troubled spell since making their big money moves last summer. Aquilani spent the majority of last season on the treatment table after his £20 million switch from Roma, while £22 million man Melo endured a fractious relationship with the Old Lady support as the team sunk to seventh place in Serie A.

The players could now each be offered a fresh start. Italian international Aquilani is seen by new Juventus boss Luigi Del Neri as the missing link in attacking midfield, while Melo could help fill the void at Anfield left by Xabi Alonso.
