Xabi Alonso: I want Juve!
Saturday 7 June, 2008
Liverpool star Xabi Alonso admits he cannot wait to join Juventus. “It would be magnificent!”
The Spaniard has long been linked with a move to Turin and the deal appears to be in its final stages.
“It would be magnificent to play alongside Alessandro Del Piero, David Trezeguet and Amauri,” he was quoted as saying in today’s edition of Tuttosport.
“They are three great champions.”
It has been reported Alonso has agreed a four-year contract worth £3m per season to tie himself to the Bianconeri.
He would hook up with fellow former Liverpool midfielder Momo Sissoko as well as World Cup winner Mauro Camoranesi.
Juve are eager to seal the deal before Euro 2008 gets into the swing of things, as they fear a good performance by Spain could further raise his price-tag.
The team makes its debut against Russia on June 10 in Innsbruck.
