Nedved welcomes Amauri addition
Tuesday 17 June, 2008

Juventus veteran Pavel Nedved has hailed the arrival of lethal Palermo marksman Amauri.

The Old Lady broke the bank to recruit Amauri this summer as they look to prepare for a Scudetto bid next term.

And Czech Republic international Nedved, who is preparing for his final season in professional football, believes the Brazilian is a sound investment.

“I am very happy with his arrival,” the 35-year-old declared on the Juventus Channel.

“He is physically strong as well as technically gifted and Juve did well to sign him.”

While Nedved seems happy with his club future, he is still reeling from seeing his compatriots dumped out of Euro 2008 after a dramatic reverse against Turkey.

“I still don’t know what happened to the Czech Republic,” he groaned. “Now I hope that Italy don’t suffer the same fate.”
