Asamoah: Juventus fans are fantastic

Juventus midfielder, Kwadwo Asamoah, has patted the fans of the club on the back for their unflinching support this season.

The 24-year-old who joined the Old Lady at the start of the season from Udinese says the fans played a huge role in helping them to retain the Serie A title.

Juve beat Palermo 1-0 over the weekend to seal their 29th Scudetto crown.

“The fans of the club have been very supportive to me personally and the team in general," the Ghana midfielder told Accra-based, Asempa FM.

“They began expressing their love for me even before I officially left Udinese for Juve and my performance in the Super Cup against Napoli won me more support.

“They have really done well and the team is grateful for what they did in helping us to keep the Serie A title,” Asamoah added.

This happens to be Asamoah’s first Serie A title.
