Claudio Marchisio Will Not Swap Juventus For Udinese - Agent

The Azzurrini midfielder will not be used as bait to lure D'Agostino to Turin...

There have been some complications regarding Gaetano D'Agostino's move to Juventus as his current club, Udinese, would like an improved offer that also includes midfielder Claudio Marchisio as part of the deal

It had been suggested that the Italy U-21 international could used to sway the Zebrette into releasing D'Agostino, but that will not occur, according to the player's representative, Carlo Pallavicino.

"Claudio will absolutely not leave Turin, because he is an important player for the club and they are counting on him for the future," he revealed during an interview with Tuttojuve.

Seemingly, Juventus are only willing to part with striker Michele Paolucci and winger Davide Lanzafame in a swap deal, not Marchisio or left-back Paolo De Ceglie.

Marchisio made 24 appearances for La Vecchia Signora in Serie A this season, scoring three times in the process. He is considered a budding star by the press throughout Europe.

The Azzurrini have a number of star players at their disposal, such as Inter striker Mario Balotelli, Juventus playmaker Sebastian Giovinco, and Genoa defender Domenico Criscito.

"We are among the favourites along with Spain and England and we intend to play until the very end," he concluded.

Marchisio had a good campaign this season with the Bianconeri, making 30 appearances in all competitions and scoring three times.

Juventus' Marchisio Upset By Cristiano Zanetti Sale

The youngster is not in favour of the Turin-based club's decision to sell the former Italian international...

Juventus midfielder Claudio Marchisio is struggling to comprehend the club's decision to sell veteran Cristiano Zanetti, who officially joined Fiorentina on Monday.

"Zanetti to the Viola? I haven't spoken to him, but I did not expect this," he sighed to firenzeviola.it.

"In both my role and as a person, the fact is he helped me a lot and I have great admiration for him. I don't understand why he has been sold."

The 23-year-old is not convinced that the former Inter man's departure will allow him to play more often either.

"Does it mean more space for me? In theory, yes, but with so many commitments we could have both played in a lot of good matches."

Juventus midfielder Claudio Marchisio has dismissed Inter Milan's Super Cup defeat.

He said: "A defeat in the Super Cup means nothing, Inter are still the super favourites for the Scudetto.

Claudio Marchisio Rues Missed Chance On Italy Debut Against Switzerland

The 23-year-old was inches away from scoring the winner in Basel on his first cap...

Midfielder Claudio Marchisio was one of the new call-ups in Marcello Lippi's Italy squad and played the entire 90 minutes in his Azzurri debut against Switzerland.

The match finished in a scoreless draw, but the Juventus midfielder came close to scoring in the first half, when he sprung the offside trap, only to see his effort finish just wide of the post.

"It's too bad the ball would not go in, scoring on my debut would have been perfect," he was quoted as saying by ANSA following the match.

"I am happy because of the confidence the coach has shown me."

Players are attempting to stake their claim to be part of the 2010 World Cup squad next summer and Marchisio would like more chances to prove his worth after a positive debut in the friendly.

"I found a fantastic group here, I hope to have other opportunities," he concluded.

Claudio Marchisio Optimistic About Juventus' Season

The Bianconero player believes that the team can do well this year, despite last night's defeat

in the Berlusconi Trophy, following an otherwise encouraging pre-season...

Juventus midfielder Claudio Marchisio is confident that the team are destined to do very well in the Serie A season which kicks off this weekend.

His optimism is founded on the performances and results of the Bianconeri during pre-season, when they obtained some good results.

"The pre-season was good," declared the young Italian international to sportmediaset.it.

"We arrived in the Peace Cup final, we won the Tim Trophy and lost the Berlusconi Trophy from the penalty shoot-out, a game which we played well, especially in the first half, whereas in the second half there was a physical dip.

"However, this game satisfied us because we managed to do what the coach asked us to do. We don't have the 4-4-2 anymore, which was the traditional formation for many years, and with which we played in the past seasons.

"At first there were some difficulties, but we worked well and the results can be seen."

The 23-year-old was promoted to the first team back in 2006, before being sent on loan to Empoli during the 2007/08 season, but in all he has already played a total of 49 league games for the Old Lady, scoring three goals in the process.

Claudio Marchisio Buoyed By Juventus' Positive Pre-Season

The former Empoli star is pleased with his outfit's form in the pre-season...

Many pundits have suggested the player will 'come of age' this season, having now earned his first cap for Italy.

"I want to continue like this, for me it has been an important summer, both because of the work I have done and my entrance into the national team.

I think Juventus is a team that needs to compete for all targets, because reinforced by the new acquisitions, we are capable of going far in all competitions.

"We are at the beginning of the season, there is time to improve, but I think we're at a good point."

The 23-year-old is also hoping to hold down a place in the Bianconeri's starting XI in 2009-10.

Barcelona, Juventus Or Inter For The Champions League - Claudio Marchisio

Marchisio believes the Champions League will end up in Spain or Italy this season...

Juventus midfielder Claudio Marchisio has made his Champions League predictions: Barcelona, Juventus and Inter are favourites.

"Barcelona have the greatest chance of winning the Champions League compared to the rest," Marchisio told Il Corriere Dello Sport.

"Inter are there after they strengthened, but we are also aiming to win the trophy."

Bitter rivals Inter have dominated Serie A in recent years, but the Italian star is confident of breaking the Nerazzurri's stranglehold.

"We have always been close to Inter, and now we have strengthened I think we are even stronger than they are," added Marchisio.

Diego has been the outstanding signing this summer, and Marchisio believes the Brazilian will help in the conquest for trophies.

"Diego is a true Brazilian. We are getting to know him better game after game, and he will make the difference for us," concluded the Italian.

Italian Title Race Not Over Yet - Claudio Marchisio

The Juventus star is confident that his side can still win the Serie A...

:|

Italian titans Juventus made an impressive start to the 2009-'10 Serie A campaign and were touted as one of the favourites for the league title. Nevertheless, a string of poor results in November and December has dented their ambitions.

Holding midfielder Claudio Marchisio, who has been one of Juventus' key performers so far, is still confident that La Vecchia Signora have what it takes to win the Scudetto though.

"We have been unable to keep up the great form from the first couple of games of the season. However, it's not really a matter of form. Nobody would have even been worried if we had won the games against Bologna and Napoli," said Marchisio to La giornalaccio rosa dello Sport.

"The title race isn't over just yet. We have lost too many points against the smaller teams, just like we did last year. The season is still very long, but I understand the disappointment of our fans. It looked like we were able to turn things around when we beat Inter, but we endured another setback."

Juventus are the Serie A's number three halfway the season with 30 points from seventeen games. They trail table toppers Inter by nine points.

Claudio Marchisio: Juventus Are On A Par

With Inter, Milan & Roma

The youngster is still hopeful of fourth spot.

Apr 29, 2010

Midfielder Claudio Marchisio insists the current Juventus squad is good enough to challenge for the Serie A title despite underachieving this season.

“I have always been certain that this team are very strong,” the 24-year-old said to the Juventus Channel.

“We are on the same level as Inter, Milan and Roma. It’s true that we threw away this season, but there are important players and qualities from which we can start over to begin a cycle.”

The Old Lady lies six points behind fourth-placed Sampdoria with three games left to play, but Marchisio said: “Now we just have to try and win all our final matches, hoping that something nice will happen to us
