After days of speculation, Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger finally admitted to Italian journalists that they are in talks with Juventus over a possible move for midfielder Vieira.

Juventus are rumoured to have offered 10 million Euros and midfielder Stephan Appiah, but Arsenal are holding out for 20 million Euros in cash.

Vieira of course was the subject of a very public courting by Real Madrid, and ended off deciding to stay at Arsenal, and the Italian press are split on whether or not he will move.
