On the 28th of June, 1993 I signed my future: black on white, black and white forever. Giampiero Boniperti wrapped up the negotiations with Padova in 24 hours, he had to be quick, because Fiorentina and specially Milan were after me as well. Later on, I came to know that Juventus had considered me to be a valid deal already since 1988, when I was 14. In his autobiography book 'Una vita a testa alta’ the President wrote that I was his 'last present made to Juventus’.
