In the Aosta Valley, the
sounds of football fill the air once more. This year the Bianconeri's headquarters
will again be at Scuola Alberghiera in Chatillon, where the squad will
train until 10 August.
For now Ancelotti has called
up only 14 first team players who, together with five youngsters from the
Primavera youth team, will begin training ahead of the Intertoto Cup. Among
the new faces are young goalkeeper Isaksson, O'Brien and Bachini. From
10 July, Ancelotti will have the whole squad together. Del Piero and Zidane
will be back and also the players from the Italian and other national sides
who have been given a few extra days' holiday.
Official engagements are
now very close but before Juve's first Intertoto Cup match, scheduled for
17 or 18 July, the Bianconeri will play two friendlies (8 and 12 July)
against local opposition. Our staff have set up camp in the Aosta Valley
with Juventus. Exclusive interviews, comments and daily news bulletins
will enable you to satisfy your curiosity and follow Ancelotti's new Juve
every day.
