  On his way? Gilberto is wanted.
  
  JUVENTUS are ready to make a £5million January swoop for disgruntled Arsenal star Gilberto Silva. The Italian giants are hopeful of nabbing the Brazilian ace, 31, who is fed up after losing his starting spot at The Emirates.
  
  Juve sent a delegation to London at the end of last season to clinch a deal for the midfielder. Gilberto, whose contract runs out in 2009, was keen on a move but boss Arsene Wenger put a stop to it.
  
  Yet this season Gilberto has been reduced to just four starts and is frustrated with life on the bench.
