The Director General of the Turin outfit gave the latest on their hunt for a striker; and talked about the various options they have already considered to bring in.
Upon winning the Scudetto there was the fear that the Bianconeri might not address their weaknesses in the next season owing to all the euphoria surrounding them in the wake of the championship victory. A popular verdict given on the weakness of Juventus
was the lack of a top notch striker.
Even though Juventus did not solely rely on the shoulders of a prolific goal scorer and the goals came from many sources like http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Arturo-Vidal-c6760, the need for a proven goal scorer was evident. They went through a patch where
they were drawing a lot of matches and failed to convert chances that came their way.
They did not have a player of the quality of http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Zlatan-Ibrahimovic-c38029 in attack, a player who scored 28 times in the Serie A for AC Milan, and the Swede was a big reason behind the challenge that the Rossoneri posed to the Bianconeri.
Upon winning the Scudetto, the Director General of the club vowed to bring in a top quality player to the club. There had also been suggestions of players leaving the club to accommodate for the arrivals of a new player.
The club has been linked with several stars and they have been linked to players with high valuation as well. The director stated that the club is on the lookout to buy reinforcements, but he went on to remark that Juventus would only be looking to buy those
players who will facilitate the club in going in the right direction. He remarked:
“We give substance to those that we have. Like every club we try to improve our quality when there is an opportunity, if there are the players there who can help us leap forward then we will evaluate things.”
After constant speculation linking http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Fernando-Llorente-c13671 with a move to the Juventus Arena, Marotta conceded that they are looking at the availability of the striker. However, he also stated that they have other players in mind.
