Asamoah happy with Juve start

Kwadwo Asamoah is happy after making his debut for Juventus in Tuesday’s 7-1 friendly win over Aygreville.

Asamoah played the first 45 in central midfield.

The midfielder moved to Turin this summer after a co-ownership deal was done with Udinese for his signature.

“It was a good test,” the 23-year-old told Sky Sport Italia. “I’ve instantly settled in well with my new teammates. This first week of training has been excellent and I’m happy to be here.”

After four years in Udine, the Ghanaian international is aware that he’s been given a massive opportunity by the Old Lady.

“This is a very important step for my career,” continued the man born in Accra.

“Everyone knows how important it is to play in this shirt. We are talking about the champions of Italy and I’ll give my best for these colours.”

Richmond Boakye came on in the second half and scored in the closing stages.
