Barcelona step closer to landing Zambrotta

Video Safari

Barcelona are close to agreeing a deal with Juventus for fullback Gianluca Zambrotta.

Barcelona daily El Mundo Deportivo claimed on Saturday that the two clubs are close to agreeing a deal for Zambrotta, and that would just leave the player himself to give the green light for a move.
Both Milan clubs - AC and Inter - are also interested in signing Zambrotta but at this stage Barca would appear to be favourites.
They've already signed Chelsea's Eidur Gudjohnsen to replace the departed Henrik Larsson this summer.
And the addition of Zambrotta would give an even stronger look to a squad that is already packed with world stars.
