    Sven Goran Eriksson and Antonio Conte are among names being considered by Juventus to succeed coach Ciro Ferrara.

    La Stampa says Juve president Jean-Claude Blanc and patron John Elkann spent yesterday discussing candidates to replace Ferrara.

    Eriksson, Marco van Basten and Conte were all considered, along with top two names Rafa Benitez, the Liverpool manager, and Bordeaux coach Laurent Blanc.
