Pereyra joins Juventus on loan

Juventus have signed Argentine midfielder Roberto Pereyra from Udinese on a season-long loan.

The Bianconeri have paid £1.19m to take him to Turin, with the option to make the transfer permanent for £11m at the end of the season.

"I'm feeling good and I'm very happy to be here," Pereyra told JTV. "I've joined a great team, where you have to play well week in, week out. Now I'm just waiting to start training so I can be available for the coach.

"It's obviously going to be difficult to break into the starting XI, but I'm just going to train alongside my teammates so that I can learn from them."

Pereyra scored twice in 36 league appearances for Udinese last season.
