Thiago Silva can be our Pirlo - Juve CEO hints at move for PSG defender

Paris Saint-Germain captain Thiago Silva is being monitored by Juventus, with the club's CEO Giuseppe Marotta hinting at a possible move for the soon-to-be free agent.

Thiago Silva is out of contract at the end of the season and the former AC Milan centre-back has been linked with a return to Serie A after his representative suggested his client could leave French champions PSG if his future is not resolved by December.

"Thiago Silva is an exceptional player and I don't know what PSG's intentions are for the future," Marotta is quoted as telling Rai.

"It could be an opportunity like we had in the past to go for Pirlo. A player considered by many to be 'finished', but proved to be a great deal on a free transfer for us."
