A possible move for Werder Bremen midfielder Diego seems to have split the Juventus camp in half.
The Old Lady are expected to strengthen their squad in the New Year to help their Scudetto push.
Brazilian international Diego has long been a target and there have even been discussions between the player's agent and father and Juve officials.
However, it seems that Juventus boss Claudio Ranieri isn't so convinced that Diego would be a good signing.
According to Tuttosport, Ranieri has argued with Juve directors because he doesn't think Diego would fit his 4-4-2 system.
“Diego is a great talent, but he is a trequartista,” Ranieri explained.
“We would have to change our system to fit him in and one of our wingers would have to be benched.
“In the end I would rather stick with the men that we have, even if we need some back-up.”
