Paris Saint-Germain join Wolfsburg in race for Juventus' Amauri - reports
Various reports in Italy suggest interest in former Palermo forward is pan-European, ranging from France to GermanyAug 24, 2011 6:15:00 PM
Paris Saint-Germain are looking at Juventus striker Amauri, but they could face stiff competition from Wolfsburg, according to reports.
La Gazzetta dello Sport claims the Ligue 1 side see the 31-year-old as an ideal replacement for Mevlut Erding, who looks set to join Rennes.
PSG have already had a move for Inter's Diego Milito turned down after he said he would be staying at San Siro despite strong interest from Leonardo, who coached him last season.
And Parisian eyes have now focused on Amauri, who looks destined to leave Turin.
Potential moves to Palermo, Genoa, Napoli and Fiorentina have all failed because of his ?4 million per annum wage demands, but it is said the French are convinced they can get him to lower that sum.
However, Leonardo may have to deal with the added strain of seeing off other clubs as German side Wolfsburg are also keen on the forward.
Tuttomercatoweb.com reports Diego's reported move to Atletico Madrid will see Felix Magath turn his attentions to Amauri, who is liked by the lower Saxony-based outfit.
