Tiago Tetap di Juventus

Direktur olahraga Juventus, Alessio Secco menegaskan bahwa Tiago tidak akan pergi kemana-mana, walaupun datang Felipo Melo.

Juventus sporting director Alessio Secco insists Tiago is going nowhere despite the imminent arrival of Felipe Melo.

Tiago mengalami dua tahun masa mengecewakan di Itali, dan gelandang 28 tahun mantan pemain Chelsea itu mengindikasikan awal musim panas ini kemungkinan akan pergi.

Tiago has had a disappointing two years in Italy, and the 28-year-old former Chelsea midfielder suggested earlier this summer that he may look to move on.

Jadi, sekalipun pemain internasional Brasil, Melo, diharapkan menyelesaikan kepindahannya dari Fiorentina ke Juventus dalam waktu dekat, Secco menyatakan bahwa pelatih baru Juventus Ciro Ferrara merasa Tiago masih punya peran penting dalam permainan.

However, although Brazil international Melo is expected to complete his switch from Fiorentina shortly, Secco has revealed that new coach Ciro Ferrara feels Tiago still has an important role to play.

"Kami punya beberapa penawaran untuknya, namun dia tidak akan pergi kemana-kemana," kata Secco pada Juventus Channel. "Kami sangat berharap pada Tiago sebagai bagian dari trio gelandang sebagaiana keinginan Ferrara.

"We have had several offers for him, but he isn't going anywhere," he told Juventus Channel. "We are strongly relying on Tiago as part of a midfield trio as that's what Ferrara wants."
