Unless Juve. are playing with a younger team, Sydney would get their asses handed to them. But it would be cool to see the likes of Ibra and Vieira on Australian soil.

haha i read that someone had "overheard" Bugno while he was having coffee with someone else. They said that Juve would bring their first team and that they were looking for 2 friendlies around the asia area if i remember correctly.

It sure would bring one heck of a crowd.

Juventus stars to sizzle in Sydney
By John Taylor
March 12, 2006

JUVENTUS, one of the giant clubs of world football, wants to play A-League champion Sydney FC after the World Cup finals.

The likely Serie A champion would bring all its big guns to Sydney for the one-off game before the start of next season's A-League in August.

With such stars as Alessandro Del Piero, Gianluca Zambrotta, David Trezeguet, Patrick Vieira, Pavel Nedved, Adrian Mutu, Zlatan Ibrahimovic and Marcelo Zalayeta playing for Juve, Sydney would probably have to look at staging the game at Telstra Stadium.

The attraction of the multi-million-dollar team would be enormous.

Sydney chairman Walter Bugno was overheard with two other people at a coffee shop at Star City discussing plans for the match.

It is understood Juve wants to play two games in Asia and one in Australia and approached Sydney.

"You can't even have a coffee without people eavesdropping," Bugno said yesterday.

"All I am prepared to say is that we are working on a couple of potential games leading into the new season and both are against overseas sides. I am not going to say any more until they are locked away."

However, he quashed reports that Italian striker Paolo di Canio would be Sydney's guest player next year.


"Don't read too much into the Italian newspapers," Bugno said.
It was reported that Di Canio, now playing for Lazio, would replace Dwight Yorke as Sydney's marquee player.

"Dwight's our marquee player," Bugno said.

"We are negotiating with a guest player right now and it's not di Canio. It is someone special, but it's a case of working around the draw.

"In the draft draw we have some consecutive games at home and that's where we want to fit the player around. We have to do what's best for Sydney financially.

"As for Dwight, we expect him to report back to Sydney as soon as the World Cup is over. I've had a good chat with Dwight."

German coach Pierre Littbarski will be back in town this week to sort out a new contract with Sydney.

Littbarski has said that while he would love to stay in Sydney, he will leave the club if he's offered only a one-year deal.

Bugno desperately wants the German to continue.

"Pierre has done a fantastic job for the club and my recommendation is that we keep him," Bugno said.

He is confident the club will reap the benefit of more sponsorship dollars after last week's grand final win.

Anyway, even though this never happened, I hope it will perhaps next year. Would be much better than watching the LA Galaxy.

I suppose with LA Galaxy, you got to start somewhere with a friendly match and it was one that was going to attract a lot of attention with a certain player in their team. Now we can hope to get other teams out here - and those teams which are not just popular because of one name.
Cuore
Yeah, the problem is too that because of the difference in seasons from here and the Northern Hemisphere, there's never really a time of year when each team are in good shape and can compete due to regional competitions and others, so it makes it difficult. I think slowly we'll get more teams over here, I know Inter has played in Asia for their preseason.

therd probably be more juve fans than sydney at the game down here. all the italians would bandwagon rolleyes.gif

"Yeah bro ther from juventus in Italy derh"

Umm why is this still open, Italia949 you resumed a year old dead thread mellow.gif
Cuore
It was at the top of the list because of the forum failure, I was bored, lol..
PHIL ME CRACKIN
well atleast its up and back running because when the thread started it said some time next year so they probably playing soon so thats probably why its back up
Cuore
I don't think it'll happen soon unless a youth squad comes, because the next possible time that Juventus could travel here would most likely be in between the end of this season and the beginning of the next, but because Euro 2008 is on, quite a number of players will be on International duty in the squad.

I chose to leave this open as people were having a decent discussion and since the LA Galaxy game was just on, it does bring up some relevance again. It can stay open so long as we have a decent discussion going smile.gif
