The American full-back introduces himself: “Honored to be coached by Allegri. Last season I started playing as a full back and I find myself more and more at ease.” And on David, a former Lille team-mate: “He’s a friend, he asked me questions about Juve…”
– Turin
“Replacing a legend like Cuadrado is a challenge and a great responsibility, I will be inspired by him.” Word of Timothy Weah, son of big George – the former Ballon d’Or of Milan – and first signing of Juventus 2023-24. “I’m very happy to be here – says the full-back of the US former Lilla team – it’s a blessing for me and for my family. I am honored to be black and white and to be coached by a great coach like Allegri. Last season I started playing as a fullback and I’m getting more and more at ease. Serie A is one of the most beautiful leagues in the world.”

“I wanted to make my story here – explained Timothy Weah -, my dad has always supported me and has always been a Juventus fan. I am very happy to be in Turin. Here I found many champions, it’s a great challenge. I have to work and listen to the coach to push myself beyond my limits. The 22 shirt? It’s my birthday and the first number my mum gave me when I started playing”.
I wait for David

If Cuadrado, a former Juventus player who has just moved to Inter, is the model, Timothy Weah hopes to return to supply his friend and former teammate Jonathan David with crosses. Indeed, Weah is not the only Lille player who has been targeted by the Bianconeri in recent months. It is no secret that Giuntoli-Manna is interested in the Canadian Jonathan David, one of the forwards followed for the post Vlahovic. “David is a friend of mine – concludes Weah -, he asked me questions about Juventus and I told him that if he were to come here he will have to be ready to work hard”.
