Juve ahead in Kjaer race
Friday 27 March, 2009

Juventus lead the race to secure the services of Palermo defender Simon Kjaer, according to Tuttosport.

The Danish starlet, who turned 20 yesterday, has taken Serie A by storm and is reportedly a target for Milan and Juventus.

According to Turin-based newspaper Tuttosport, Kjaer is closer to Juve than Milan.

It is reported that the key to the deal could be Swedish Bianconeri youngster Albin Ekdal.

The 19-year-old midfielder was one of the stars of this year's Viareggio youth tournament and is said to be a Rosanero target.

Kjaer has recently been valued at £12m by his agent, but having Ekdal on loan could be part of the deal and may reduce the fee in cash.
