Atletico Madrid have approached Juventus for midfielder Stephen Appiah.
Juve coach Fabio Capello has given the green light for the Ghana international to be released on-loan as it will free up a non-EU spot in his squad.
Appiah has failed to convince Capello of his long-term value at Juve and the youngster could join Atletico on-loan in exchange for first refusal on young defender Pablo Ibanez.
After Appiah?s recent failings with Juventus, the Bianconeri are looking for a midfielder to add onto their squad during this January transfer window.
