It has emerged that Juventus veteran Pavel Nedved is in talks with Japanese outfit Jubilo Iwata.
Nedved’s future is unclear as the 35-year-old’s contract in Turin expires at the end of the season.
There were reports earlier in the season that the Czech international would join FC Tokyo for around £4m and now it seems that he has another Japanese suitor.
“At the moment we are talking to Juventus about Nedved,” Jubilo Iwata President Yoshio Mabuchi revealed on Sports Nippon.
“We hope to have everything sorted within May.”
Three-time champions Jubilo have made an indifferent start to the 2008 season in the J-League and are looking to add foreign talent to a squad with 33 homegrown players.
However, their plans to lure Nedved may be thwarted if the Old Lady opt to offer the former Lazio man another season in the Bianconero shirt.
