Allegri 鈥榗an鈥檛 wait鈥 to work with Higuain
JUVENTUS manager Massimiliano Allegri says he can’t wait to start working with his 90-million euro (US$100 million) man Gonzalo Higuain but warned the striker not to come to Turin expecting his place in the side is assured.
“It will not be easy for us to win the championship again,” said Allegri, who’s team is going for a sixth straight Serie A title.
“Of course I am looking forward to having Gonzalo Higuain as part of the squad. He is an important signing but he is one of a number of them who will all be fighting for positions.”
It’s been a frantic week for the Serie A champion with a young squad touring on one side of the world, while serious business deals are going on in the other.
With Higuain coming in as a club-record signing, the word on the street has been that Juventus’ much in-demand Paul Pogba is on his way out — to Manchester United for an estimated 100 million euros.
Allegri has remained tight-lipped on that particular transfer but said he was happy with the five signings the Bianconeri had made so far, among them the former AS Roma midfielder Miralem Pjanic.
“Every season is a new beginning,” said Allegri, whose squad is in China’s Hong Kong for an exhibition match.
“We will all meet up on Monday in Turin and get to work — with the new players and with the players we have had on this tour. We have a lot of work to do.”
Juve plays South China today, the final leg of a preseason tour that has included games in Australia against Melbourne Victory and Tottenham Hotspur.
