It's official, Juventus have completed their signing of the January transfer window.
On Thursday - just over 24 hours after the window opened - it was announced that the reigning Serie A champions had signed Sweden midfielder Dejan Kulusevski from Atalanta in a 35m euro (£29.7m) deal.
"I am very happy, 2020 couldn’t have started any better," he told JTV . "It’s an important day for me, my friends, my family and for everyone who has worked with me.
"Goals or assists? I play only to win. So if I think it’s better to shoot, I will shoot.
"However, if I see a teammate who is in a better position than me to score, I will pass, because the goals and assists don’t count: only a victory matters.
"Sarri did a fantastic job at Napoli and at Chelsea. I studied his style of play and I like it a lot, because the ball moves quickly, always with two touches at most and everyone helps each other. I want to improve and I think he will make me improve a great deal here.
"From the beginning my role was a trequartista. I had a few different coaches with Atalanta and Parma, so I changed and took a few roles. I can be a winger, last season I was a mezzala, so I can play wherever the coach wants, but I see myself as a trequartista behind the strikers.
"Parma became home for me: I’ve been there for six months and I do feel at home. My teammates help me every day, the coach helped me from the first day and I am lucky to have someone who believes in me.
"Juventus is one of the biggest clubs in the world. When everyone starts out in football, they all want to play for Juve. When the chance arose to join Juve, I didn’t think twice."
Kulusevski will bolster what is already a strong pool of midfielders already at Juventus.
Although, he's set to join up with his new teammates in July as he's been loaned back to Parma for the remainder of the season.
This decision could have an impact on Arsenal.
FootMercato have recently claimed that Gunners head coach Mikel Arteta has personally called Juventus midfielder Adrien Rabiot to outline the vision of his 'project' in north London as he aims to persuade the France international to move to the Emirates Stadium.
But with Kulusevski not joining up with the squad until the summer it could mean that Rabiot stays put for now.
