意大利当地时间6月22日下午,尤文图斯官方正式宣布了阿尔米隆和蒂亚哥的加盟。分别来自意大利恩波利和法甲里昂队的两名中场球员都和新东家尤文签订了一份到2012年的合同。

蒂亚哥成为了历史上加盟尤文图斯的第四名葡萄牙人,他的前辈分别是:鲁伊.巴罗什、迪马斯和保罗.索萨。蒂亚戈则更被寄予厚望,被称为“新的保罗。索萨”,保罗.索萨本人评价他为:“一个全能的中场,一开始他侧重进攻,几乎是一个前腰,但后来他在防守方面长进了很多,对于一支球队,他是在90分钟的攻防里都有用的球员。”

在过去的三年中,蒂亚哥从本菲卡到了切尔西,又从切尔西转投里昂,三年收获了三个冠军:英超一个,法甲两个。蒂亚哥希望自己的冠军命能在尤文延续下去:“尤文的存在就是为了冠军,这是一家伟大的俱乐部,加盟尤文是我的梦想,如今,这成为了现实。”

熟悉意甲的人对阿尔米隆也不会陌生,2001年阿根廷人从纽威尔老伙计登陆意甲加盟乌迪内斯,之后转战维罗纳、恩波利,并在上个赛季帮助恩波利获得了欧洲联盟杯的门票。加盟尤文,使得他和亚昆塔再一次成为了队友。

尤文官网高度评价了两名新人,称他们会给球队的各方面都带来提升。在吉利很早就抛出的进补计划里,如今锋线和中场都已有新员加盟,剩下的就是如何继续调整完善,而作为尤文三线中最急需动手术的后防,谁将成为下一个到来者,至今仍不明朗。他会是在皇马搅局后渐行渐远的米利托,还没有谈拢的巴尔扎利,还是新浮出水面的阿根廷人加雷?

迪亚戈表示自己在法国时就被成为washing machine，因为他能化解那些棘手的进攻，解围皮球并交给队友。他说自己来尤文就是为了夺冠，要用实际行动做给球迷看看。尤文图斯为这名球星将付出的年薪达到170万英镑

同时尤文瞄上桑坦德的加雷，转会费可能是12.5M欧。此人是阿根廷U20夺得世界冠军的队员，入选了年初和瑞士的友谊赛大名单，可惜后来因伤未能出场。

Tiago targets Italian title Friday 22 June, 2007

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Lyon midfielder Tiago Mendes insists he is joining Juventus with the intention of winning the Serie A title.

The Portuguese ace underwent his medical in Turin yesterday and although the move is not yet official, he’s already talking as a Bianconero.

“I am pleased to be here and I want the supporters to know that I am sure we will compete for the Scudetto,” said the player to Tuttosport.

“I am a classic No 8 although I will wear the No 30 shirt at Juventus.

“In France they used to call me ‘the washing machine’, because I can manage tricky balls, ‘cleaning’ them and serving them to my teammates.

“Milan wanted me too, but Juventus were more decisive.”

The former Chelsea central midfielder is expected to cost the Old Lady of Italian football a transfer fee of around £11m.

Meanwhile, Juventus are chasing Racing Santander defender Ezequiel Garay after Gabriel Milito’s move to Turin stalled.

The Bianconeri had been tracking the Zaragoza player for several months and were reportedly close to signing the Argentine, but the Liga outfit increased their asking price and now seem keen on doing a deal with Real Madrid instead.

According to Spanish newspaper Marca, Juventus have thus turned their attention to Garay who could move to the Serie B champions for a massive £8.5m.

The 20-year-old, who scored 10 goals last season, joined Racing Santander in 2006 from Newell’s Old Boys and is contracted until 2011.

He is an U-20 world champion and was called-up by Coach Alfio Basile for Argentina’s friendly with Switzerland earlier this year, but was unable to play because of injury.

Juve sign Almiron and Tiago Friday 22 June, 2007

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Midfielders Sergio Almiron and Tiago Mendes have officially joined newly promoted Italian giants Juventus.

The duo underwent their medicals in Turin this week and have, as expected, completed their moves to Turin after agreeing five-year contracts.

Almiron has joined the Bianconeri from Serie A minnows Empoli, while the Portuguese ace has landed from Lyon.

Almiron started his career with Newell’s Old Boys in Argentina and moved to Italy in 2001 when he joined Udinese. He switched to Tuscany in August 2004 after playing for then Serie B side Verona.

“I am here to prove my value and I am ready to face any difficulty,” said the South American, who will again team up with Vincenzo Iaquinta after his recent switch from Udine.

“I will do my best, as I have always done in the past. This is a new starting point in my career – I have been waiting for this moment for some time.”

Almiron has cost the club something in the region of £6.5m.

Tiago, who was also being chased by Milan, joins Juve after winning three straight League titles in the last three years, one with Chelsea and two with Lyon.

“I am here to win more trophies and I am happy with my choice,” explained the 26-year-old who Lyon have sold for £9.3m.

“Juventus are a great European club,” he added. “Playing for them was a dream and now it has come true.”

The international, who played an important role in the Portugal side that reached the semi-finals of last summer’s World Cup, joined Lyon in 2005 after spells with Sporting Braga, Benfica and Chelsea.

北京时间6月22日晚，尤文图斯俱乐部宣布了两笔重要的转会，里昂中场蒂亚戈及恩波利阿尔米隆已经正式成为斑马军团的球员。

　　据悉，这两笔转会早些时候就已经得到了俱乐部的证实，今天只是进行了官方宣布。价格方面，26岁的前切尔西球员蒂亚戈让尤文花费了1300万欧元，而恩波利中场阿尔米隆的价格为900万欧元。
