Fulham goalkeeper Niemi keen on move to Juventus, says his agent

Fulham goalkeeper Antti Niemi's agent says his client would jump at the chance to join Juventus.


The goalkeeper looks surplus to requirements at Craven Cottage and Richard Cody said: 'I am aware they like the player and as far as we’re concerned,

'Juventus would be a welcome destination.'

Meanwhile former Rangers striker Mark Hateley has urged the Ibrox club to capture the signature of Steve Davis - or start looking elsewhere to bolster a midfield depleted by the loss of skipper Barry Ferguson.

Fulham player Davis, 23, enjoyed a loan spell at Ibrox last season but the London club are looking for £4million to make the move permanent, a figure which is providing a stumbling block for Light Blues' boss Walter Smith.

Ferguson's four-month absence at the start of the season, while he recovers from an operation on his ankle, has sharpened the focus on the Ibrox side's midfield area.

Hateley believes a decision on Northern Ireland international Davis should be made sooner rather than later.

He said: 'From what we seen from Davis last season, he could be a very integral part of Rangers' season, especially at the start, when the club is without without its captain.'
