DBasia.news – Denis Zakaria surprisingly moved to Juventus at the end of the winter transfer window. The Swiss midfielder had special reasons for choosing the Bianconeri.
Juventus is not the only big club interested in Zakaria. However, the transfer of the player who previously belonged to Borussia Monchengladbach is predicted to occur only next summer.
Manchester United is one of the big clubs interested in Zakaria. Ralf Rangnick still needs a new defensive midfielder to strengthen his squad.
Rangnick himself already knows Zakaria’s quality because he has been in the Bundesliga for a long time. Unfortunately, Juventus moved faster to realize this transfer.
Zakaria could not refuse Juventus’ offer. Playing for one of the best teams in Italy and Europe was unimaginable.
“Signing for Juventus was something extraordinary for me and it’s still hard to believe. This is a great club, I am very honored and proud to be a part of it,” said Zakaria at his unveiling ceremony.
“I will do my best to give my contribution. I can help the team recover the ball, that’s one of my qualities.”
Interestingly, Juventus only spent around 5 million euros to bring Zakaria from Monchengladbach. This figure is very small from the market price.
Monchengladbach seemed to have no other choice. The German club will lose for free if they insist on maintaining Zakaria until his contract expires.
“My target is to win trophies with Juventus. Juventus is a great club, which has to win something every year.”
“I want to win trophies here and I want to improve and make the fans happy. I hope to be able to do that from the next match.”
“To the Juventus fans, I want to say that there is a new player in the team who will give everything to help the team express himself at the highest level.”
