So look out for the English translation to pop up later today.
And here it is:
Melo: 'Don't judge me on my price'
Juventus midfielder Felipe Melo says he is disappointed with his start to life in Turin and that he doesn't want to be judged on his price tag alone.
The Brazil international left Fiorentina in a £23m transfer in the summer, but some feel he is suffering from fatigue, as he didn't have a break in pre-season, having participated in the Confederations Cup.
Yesterday he was included on the list of candidates for Italy's Golden Bin awards, which commemorate the worst signings of the season.
Speaking to La Gazzetta dello Sport, Melo denied claims that he has been putting his country before his club.
“I only say that Felipe Melo is one person and that's it, and there isn't one for Brazil and another for Juve. And excuse me, but how can you make these arguments in November?
“If for example, you say this to get out how much Juventus have paid for me, then it really makes no sense even speaking about it. The price wasn't something that depended on me.
“What depends on me is repaying Juventus for the choice they have made focusing on me and I know that I will not betray this trust and no one will regret the investment they have made,” Melo concluded.
