Liverpool Loanee Alberto Aquilani Has Juventus Title Ambitions

Speaking as he begins his loan spell from Liverpool, Alberto Aquilani said that he believes Juventus could win the Serie A title.

The 25-year-old attacking midfielder moved to Juventus towards the end of last week after Liverpool boss Roy Hodgson advised him to get some regular first-team football in Italy as he doesn't feature in his Anfield plans for now.

Just before he underwent a Juventus medical, Aquilani said, “I am happy to be here."

Referring to fellow newcomer Milos Krasic, Aquilani continued, “Juve are a team worthy of the Scudetto. We hope to do well together with Krasic.

“I have returned to Italy to get a place in the national team again.

“I will meet Del Neri tomorrow. He convinced me to come and no other club came looking for me.”

Aquilani played for Liverpool against Rabotnicki and it is unclear whether he will therefore be able to represent Juventus in the Europa League this season.
