Fredy Guarin reveals Juventus snub

Inter Milan midfielder Fredy Guarin has revealed that he rejected the chance to join Juventus when he left Porto in January 2012.

The Colombia international insists that he is happy with his choice, although he admits that not playing in the Champions League is a big miss.

He told La Gazzetta dello Sport: "I have always said that I want to win silverware here. I remember when I was at Porto, I said no to Juventus to come to Inter."

He added: "I really miss the Champions League. A team like Inter needs to be in that competition every season. We have to return immediately, for the fans too."

Inter finished ninth in Serie A last season, but they currently sit fourth in this season's table after taking 14 points from their opening six games.
