Trez close to comeback
Wednesday 29 December, 2004
Juventus ace David Trezeguet is confident that he is just a few weeks away from returning to action.
The striker had shoulder surgery in October but the Frenchman is on the verge of a full recovery.
"I’m very close to a return," he stated. "I should resume full training with my teammates on January 2 and then it will be up to the Coach to decide when to use me."
Many expect Trez to be back in Serie A mode on January 23 for the home match against Brescia.
"It will be very pleasing to play alongside Alessandro Del Piero or Zlatan Ibrahimovic again," explained the former Monaco man.
"Ibra is a great player. It is very easy to play alongside him because he creates space for others which makes scoring goals rather easy."
The 26-year-old concluded by revealing that he hopes to get his hands on the European Cup in 2005.
"I’ve won a lot with Juventus up to this point but I am missing the Champions’ League. Fortunately with this team, we can lift any trophy," he added.
