...with Martini being Brighi and party being... Cannavaro at Juve. 
This is what Brighi's agent Puzzolo, said today:
"Il Parma vuole fortemente Brighi. Sacchi lo ha richiesto alla Juventus nell'ambito dell'operazione che dovrebbe portare Cannavaro a Torino. Non transige: senza Brighi, l'affare salta. Il giocatore non fa distinzioni, lui vuole giocare. La Juventus, fino adesso, ha proposto agli emiliani decine di giocatori, ma sa perfettamente che se non mette Brighi sul piatto della bilancia, può anche dire addio a Cannavaro e sta entrando nell'ordine delle idee di darlo al Parma".
Which reads as:
"Parma strongly wants Brighi. Sacchi have asked him from Juventus in the deal that should bring Cannavaro at Turin. Without Brighi, the deal falls through. The player has no objections, he wants to play. Juventus, till now, has offered several players to the Emiliani (that's Parma in this case), but they perfectly know that if they don't put Brighi in the deal they can say goodbye to Cannavaro and they are getting into the idea of giving him (Brighi) to Parma."

That's as clear as it gets. The question is, do you want this deal to happen? Personally, as a Parma fan, I'd love it. But thats probably because I know that Cannavaro is gone either way and that Brighi is the best possible player we could get as exchange. I wouldn't mind Maresca either, but I prefer Brighi because I think he is more talented and his style would serve us better next to someone more tactical like Lamouchi or more defencive like Appiah or perhaps even Tedesco.
You give arguably the biggest talent in Italy right now and get the best man marker in the world in order to build an ideal 3-man defence looking something like Tudor-Montero-Cannavaro.
What's your take?
PS. Perhaps I should have put that in the rumors topic, but I'd rather make a separate one to have some discussion. Hope you don't mind.
