"Juventus" finally slightly strengthened their squad - officially announced the acquisition of 24-year-old right-back Joao Cancelo. Previously belonging to Valencia, but having played on loan basis for Milan's Inter last season, the defender arrived in Turin this morning to complete all formalities. J. Cancelo, who signed a five-year contract with "Juventus", cost the team 40.4 million euros. "Juventus" has been looking to strengthen the position of right-back for some time, and the Portuguese-born footballer fits Massimiliano Allegri's prototype. Before joining Valencia, J. Cancelo represented Lisbon's Benfica team. Last season, playing for Inter, the defender only played 23 matches, but showed his potential at the end of the season.
