Boakye-Yiadom ready to fight for Juventus place - Agent

Oliver Arthur, the agent of Ghana international Richmond Boakye-Yiadom, has stated that his client will return to Juventus after his loan deal at Elche.

The 21-year-old Ghanaian has emerged as a summer target for a host of clubs including Parma and Werder Bremen, but his agent insists the dream of his client is to fight for a place in Turin.

“Boakye is co-owned by Juventus and Genoa, but his dream is to return to Juventus. Certainly in the future he would like to return to Italy and play with the jersey of the Old Lady,” Arthur told Tuttomercato.

“For now we do not know what is in stored next season, but Boakye is now focused on doing well with Elche which will help him win a place in Juventus.”

He added: “At the end of the season we will see how we move together with the companies that hold his card. Several teams in Serie A follow him and want him but he wants to be with Juventus.”

The striker who has also played for Sassuolo on loan has netted thrice for the Spanish side this season.
