Conte pleased with new recruits

Juventus boss Antonio Conte admits he is happy with the business his club has done so far this summer and is upbeat for the new season.

The Old Lady are looking to bolster their squad for the defence of their Serie A title and have already signed Sebastian Giovinco from Parma and former Inter star Lucio. Other new faces are expected to arrive in Turin before the start of the new campaign and Conte is delighted how things have gone in the off-season to date, with the Udinese duo of Mauricio Isla and Kwadwo Asamoah also on board. "I wanted Sebastian Giovinco and Lucio is a top player," he said. "Giovinco is someone who I strongly wanted, but so too did the club. "Giovinco has technique, he scores goals and creates them. He can take a free-kick and is also strong in one-on-one situations. He still needs to grow, but he'll get that chance here. "Isla and Asamoah are strong players and good enough for the Juventus shirt."
