Former Juventus midfielder Stephen Appiah admits that he dreams of a return to the Bianconeri. Juve are looking for some midfield reinforcements and the former Brescia man may be the medicine for their injury problems.
The Ghanaian played for the Bianconeri for two seasons between 2003 and 2005 and reveals that he wouldn’t mind a move back to Turin.
Appiah recently terminated his contract with Fenerbahce and he is a free agent. He is now hoping Claudio Ranieri takes notice of his situation.
“Coming back to Juve would be a dream for me and I am sure I can give them more compared to my first experiences there,” Appiah told Tuttosport.
“I am better, more mature and I would be ready to make my self available for the team.
“I don’t know if there has been any contact, but I hope there has been.
“My agent hasn’t told me anything yet. I know that there's been offers from abroad, but if Juventus call they will be priority.”
The 27-year-old would be a welcome addition to the Old Lady as a number of injuries have hampered the team.
Claudio Marchisio, Cristiano Zanetti, Marco Marchionni and Mauro Camoranesi all have various problems in the treatment room and Appiah would represent great cover in the middle. Juve are looking to challenge for major titles this year and a strong squad is needed if they are to achieve their ambitions.

Appiah is not needed. We need better quality midfielders, like Moutinho or Hamsik, who would enhance our midfield greatly.
You cant sell your 4th or 5th choice central midfielder and bring in a new midfield star if the clueless managment feels the current squad is complete. They would look for someone who'd play an equal role, and Appiah >> Tiago. Plus he's free and we could use the cash from Tiago's sale for a defender.
