Chiellini calls for signings Thursday 31 July, 2008
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Juventus defender Giorgio Chiellini has spoken out in favour of the Bianconeri returning to the market.
President Giovanni Cobolli Gigli has stressed that the Old Lady have done their business for the summer, but there are constant Press rumours linking them with star names.
Liverpool midfielder Xabi Alonso had been expected to arrive before the purchase of Christian Poulsen and Chiellini thinks it would be a sound investment.
“There are no doubts over Alonso,” he told Sky Sport Italia. “He is a great player who could help us.
“There could be others like him but I’m sure that the club will bring in another great champion to allow us to make the leap of class needed to fight Milan, Inter and Roma.”
A possible move for Inter’s Dejan Stankovic was derailed by protests from the Juve fans.
“It’s only natural that Dejan, having played for Inter for so many years, wouldn’t be welcomed that warmly at first, but players like him know how to win over fans,” Chiellini insisted.
“I don’t know what the club will decide to do, but I know that if Stankovic arrived he would undo all the ill feeling he amassed with the Juve fans while playing for the Nerazzurri.”
Finally, Chiellini discussed the possibility of a move for Alberto Aquilani, who is currently considering a new contract offer from Roma.
“We have played together for the national side since we were 15 and our parents are close friends,” he explained.
“We speak a lot and I have always told him to come to Turin, but he has to make his decision and he is obviously very attached to Roma, having grown up there.”
