Kjaer fuels switch speculation

Palermo’s promising young centre-back Simon Kjaer has fulled speculation that he could soon be departing the Sicilian club, stating that a big-money offer could prize him away from the Rosanero.

The 20-year-old is rated as one of the best defensive prospects in Europe and is reportedly a £20 million target for Chelsea, Liverpool, Manchester City and Manchester United, with Juventus also interested in a swap deal that would see out-of-favour former Palermo striker Amauri heading in the opposite direction.

Palermo are enjoying a successful campaign, currently sitting fourth in Serie A and looking likely to qualify for next season’s Champions League, and as such it would take a special offer to lure Kjaer away.
