Boumsong has little prospect of first team football in Serie A this season, with the former Rangers man now looking east for a transfer.
The French international is in talks with Besiktas, but both his transfer value and wages may prove sticking points.
Juventus are said to be holding out for a fee in the region of 4 million euros, while Besiktas are said to be more apt to offer 2.6.
Further, Boumsong's current pay packet - 1.3 million euros per year - could prove problematic for the Black Eagles, as the ex-Newcastle stopper does not want to take a wage decrease to move to Istanbul.
While Juventus are in the midst of a defensive injury crisis, they may still let Boumsong leave, providing that they can capture another young defender, or perhaps even Andrea Barzagli of Palermo.
