"Roma surely knew about my situation and knew that I had a clause. I havent had contact with anyone from Rome even today. It is certain that I wanted to move to Juventus, which is a great club. Im 26 years old and I had great desire to go to a new club. I spent five beautiful years in Rome. Juventus was interested in me for a long time, I hope to have great success in the future"
"Ever since I came to Juventus, training is much different than in other clubs. We work hard and run a lot. I fitted right in and feel good. When I first signed, I received a lot of messages from Juventus players and it meant a lot to me. I cant wait to get a chance to play the first minutes. Competition is intense and it is normal in a big club, but I think I'm on the right path. Allegri is a very good coach, I hope that we will have a lot of success in the future. I have to show the quality on the field and he will be satisfied "
