Appiah to leave Juve?

By channel4.

There are doubts over Stephen Appiah's Juventus future as he's being linked with an exit.

The Ghanaian international was only signed from Brescia last summer but he's struggled to perform consistently in Turin.

It had seemed as if the youngster would remain but he's now being associated with two clubs in particular.

Reports suggest that the midfielder has been offered to Arsenal in a bid to sign defender Sol Campbell.

Yet the African, who has just appeared with his national side at the Olympic Games, may remain in Italy.

It is believed that Lazio are interested in netting him which would open the door for Juve to sign both Massimo Oddo and Simone Inzaghi.

Oddo is wanted as the club's new right-back after the decision by Fabio Capello to use Lilian Thuram in the centre.

Inzaghi is being targeted given that the sale of Marco Di Vaio has only left the club with David Trezeguet, Alex Del Piero, Fabrizio Miccoli and Marcelo Zalayeta in attack.
