Juventus are ready to make a player-plus-cash offer for Lyon defender Cris.
The Brazilian was a target for AC Milan, but Lyon's £15 million asking price was deemed too rich by club vice-president Adriano Galliani.
Juve are also baulking at the demand, but director general Luciano Moggi hopes to bring down the cash component by offering Uruguayan pair Ruben Olivera and Marcelo Zalayeta as part of their offer.
