In January, English club Tottenham Hotspur came with a \u20ac30 million (\u00a326.4m) offer but their bid was rejected.<\/p>\n<p>Rossi\u2019s agent, Federico Pastorello, has now explained the reasons why Spurs\u2019 offer was turned down and has opened the door to a Juventus move.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt is true, Juventus have asked for the player as is usual for a big club to do,\u201d said Pastorello, according to <strong>Goal.com Italy<\/strong>. \u201cLast year they made an offer to Villarreal for a loan deal with the right to sign on a permanent contract, but the Spanish club rejected it.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cTottenham came in January and in economic terms, it was a great opportunity but a player like Rossi at this point in his career can move ahead and join a club that guarantees that he can win something important.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;There are few such clubs and one of them is Juventus despite their recent years of difficulty. Rossi is, of course, sensitive to the idea of returning to Italy.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Rossi joined Villarreal from Manchester United in 2007 and has established himself as one of the best strikers in the Spanish Primera Division. La Liga champions Barcelona are also reportedly interested in him.<\/p>\n<p><span><span><span><span><span><span><span><span><span><span><span><span><span><span><span><span><span><span><span><span><span><span><span><span><span><span><span><span><span><span><span><em>Follow Goal.com on<span>\u00a0<\/span><span><a href=\"http:\/\/twitter.com\/goal_intl\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><em><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.ghanamma.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/03\/714b1c6993900.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"48\" height=\"11\" \/><\/em><\/a><\/span><em>.
