CSKA Offer Juve £6m for Almiron

CSKA Moscow have offered Juventus £6m for midfield flop Sergio Almiron, according to the Corriere dello Sport.

The Argentine schemer signed for the Bianconeri in the summer after three fine seasons with Empoli.

However he has dreadfully failed to live up to his tag as the “new Sebastian Veron” and is well down in the centre midfield pecking order, behind the likes of Antonio Nocerino, Cristiano Zanetti and even Tiago Mendes.

Almiron, the son of the 1986 World Cup winner Sergio Almiron Sr, is certain to leave Juventus in January and there are a whole host of interested parties.

So far Russian-outfit CSKA Moscow are the only club to have tabled a concrete bid, offering £6m for the 27-year-old.

However the Bianconeri are likely to entice bids from Fiorentina, Palermo and Lazio, who are all also interested.

In the case of Fiorentina, Juventus may ask for Manuel Pasqual to be added into any deal, with a similar scenario for Palermo with Andrea Barzagli, and Lazio with Stefano Mauri.

Almiron has played a total of seven Serie A games this campaign, starting just five of these matches.
