Dušan Vlahović, the new Juventus player, and the most expensive reinforcement in the world in the January transfer window, addressed the fans of the Turin club for the first time.
“I am delighted and proud of the contract with Juventus. Famous club. I am ready to do my best for the team and I hope for great results. I want to thank the president of the club and all the people who participated in my arrival “, said the Serbian football player at the presentation.
On Friday, Vlahovic signed a three-year contract with the Turin club, in a transfer that amounts to 80 million euros with possible bonuses.
The former Fiorentina player was connected with Arsenal, Tottenham and Newcastle during the transfer window.
“There were many rumors about foreign clubs, but the choice was easy because the club and I have similar ‘DNA’. We fight and mourn when needed. I think that is also part of my mentality, so the choice was not difficult “, added the 22-year-old striker.
Vlahovic chose the number seven jersey, which was previously worn by the Portuguese striker Cristiano Ronaldo.
“Jersey number seven is nothing. All numbers are important here. I chose it because it is closest to my previous issue (9). I am here to help my teammates and achieve our goals. The number of jerseys does not matter. Determination and dedication are the most important things. I don’t care about that. The most important thing is victories, “he said.
The Serbian player pointed out that his goal is to fit into the team as soon as possible and to meet all his teammates he knows from the field.
