Olympique Lyon are tracking Turkey and Galatasaray attacking midfielder/winger Arda Turan (22).
Juventus are still looking for a new right-back and their sports director Alessio Secco is considering two options : Schalke 04's Brazilian Rafinha and OL's Frenchman Francois Clerc.
Schalke 04 are available to negotiate for Rafinha on the basis of 4 or 5 million euros. However, Juventus would sign him only if they will manage to sell Zdenek Grygera for that same amount. Otherwise, the alternative is Clerc.
The Northern Echo report that Sunderland continue to monitor Lyon defender John Mensah's status in regards to making a move for the player. The paper reports that Mensah is 'expected to be the first to arrive' at the club with further moves set to bolster the Black Cats' defensive ranks.
Ghana defender John Mensah is keen on a move to the Premier League, with Portsmouth interested in making a second swoop on Lyon this summer, having already secured the signature of Frederic Piquionne.
