According to reports in Italy, Juventus have signed Genoa midfielder Stefano Sturaro beating off competition from AS Roma.
The side from the capital were believed to be close to signing the 21 year old but Juventus secured the deal yesterday with only the final details to be finalised today. The player is believed to have cost Juventus €5.5m as well as some playing relating bonuses tied in to any future appearances which could bring the total cost to €8m. [Via Gianluca Di Marzio].
The player is expected to remain at Genoa on loan next season with Genoa to receive a 15 percent fee of any future sale.
Well, I don’t know him, so I looked him up and found nothing impressive in statistics.
16 appearances (1114 minutes), 1 goal and 2 assists 7 yellow cards.
I don’t see him advancing us through CL group stage, but whatever.
He’s considered to be a real prospect – Very highly regarded in Italy.
He can be great for all I know. I’d rather see him and other young players instead of 29ish-never-been-good players. We’ll see I guess.
like Gio?
Never heard of him but as Peter also said, rather unproven youngsters than old hasbeens
Anything is better than drogba, eto’o etc.
Marotta should stop signing youth players for a while !!!
I think our squad is getting older – a few youth players would be good
Agree with you, but at this moment, we are expected to succeed in CL, we need to boost our line-up with quality players
You’re right, i hate the idea of Evra/Eto’o/Drogba. We have a lot of experienced players in the squad. Now we need that extra quality. the difference makers. Sanchez etc. . good to have you on the board Ahmed.
I’m happy to be here with all juventini guys, maybe I’m the first Syrian member here??
Yes, i’m sure you are. That’s great to have you here. Ramadan Mubarak to you as well
Thanks for your kind words
This post exactly. We have no strong influence on the final 3rd. Im hoping for a top class winger or striker. Sanchez, Mandzukic, Dzeko, etc. players going into their prime that wont just be a trinket for the hood but horsepower for the engine.
I’ll confuse him with Storari :/
