There is a three way race between Inter, Juventus and Lazio for the signature of Hellas Verona defender Marash Kumbulla according to a report from Italian broadcaster Sky Sport Italia, which was aired late last night.

All three clubs are currently working on signing the highly rated Albanian and Lazio are currently leading the race for him.

One reason for this is because Inter do not have money available to them to get a move done, even though they have already made an offer of €25 million plus €3 million in add-ons to the Gialloblu club.

So far Juventus have only offered swap deals, none of which interest the management of Hellas Verona, who want €32 million plus add-ons for the player and hope to have a deal in place with a club by the end of this month.

This season the 20-year-old centre back has made 21 appearances across all competitions to date, in which he has scored a single goal.
