Juventus still refuse to meet Liverpool's asking price for Alberto Aquilani - even after a discount.
Aquilani's agent Franco Zavaglia has returned from England after successfully talking down Liverpool's valuation from €16 million to €12 million.
But it is still not enough for Juve.
AC Milan are monitoring developments, while Manchester City boss Roberto Mancini is also keeping tabs on the situation.
A surprise move could come from QPR, where chairman Gianni Paladini knows all about Aquilani's qualities.
