Juventus GM Beppe Marotta is using Diego as a bargaining chip in talks with Bundesliga clubs.

Marotta has already declared Diego will be sold this summer as he doesn't fit into the system of new coach Gigi del Neri.

Tuttosport says Juve are prepared to use Diego in swap talks for Wolfsburg striker Edin Dzeko.

Hamburg's interest in the Brazil international has also raised the possibility of young fullback Dennis Aogo, 23, moving in the opposite direction.
