Miccoli makes Juve vow Wednesday 13 July, 2005
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Fabrizio Miccoli has promised Juventus fans that he is not in Turin just to make up the numbers.
Miccoli had angered fans while on loan to Fiorentina from Juventus, when he was quoted as saying that “it would be a tragedy” if he was called back to Juve.
However, he said at the Bianconeri’s training camp: “I have always shown respect to the shirt I wear.
“I am a professional football player. I always give 100 percent and I am not here to be a piece of furniture.”
But striker Miccoli continues to be named among a whole host of players linked with a move away from the club.
Others tipped for the Delle Alpi scrapheap are midfielders Enzo Maresca, Stephen Appiah and Alessio Tacchinardi, and defender Igor Tudor.
Meanwhile, fresh from being released from his Juventus contract and signing for Argentine side River Plate, Chilean striker Marcello Salas is again without a club.
The injury-prone hitman has walked out on his new employers following a bitter dispute over pay.
“Salas did not accept the wages we offered him to sign a contract extension – therefore he is no longer part of the squad,” commented River Plate President Jose Maria Aguillar.
