Official: Amauri joins Juventus Friday 30 May, 2008
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Amauri is officially a Juventus player after completing a transfer from Palermo and is in Turin to be presented as a Bianconero.
After painstakingly slow progress during recent negotiations, the Brazilian hitman has signed a four-year contract with the Old Lady, which will net him around £2.8m per season, plus bonuses.
Juve will pay Palermo £9.8m and grant the Rosanero co-ownership of Azzurrini midfielder Antonio Nocerino and striker Davide Lanzafame.
Amauri hit 15 goals last season for a mediocre Sicilian outfit and is guaranteed an enormous cash reward if he reaches the 20-goal mark next season.
The former Chievo man is the Turin giants’ first swoop as they attempt to strengthen their squad for a Champions League adventure and a Scudetto push next year.
Amauri will give his first interview as a Juventus player within the next hour.
