Juventus Is Like A Family For Felipe Melo - Brother

The Brazilian's brother has revealed how happy Felipe Melo is at the Bianconeri club...

After signing for Juventus in a deal worth over €20 million, Felipe Melo has quickly settled in with his new team-mates, according to his brother Sidcler.

"He has looked very happy to me," Sidcler Melo told Tuttosport.

"He has said himself, he has found a family at Juventus, a close group."

The midfielder's brother continued that there was work for Felipe to do at Juventus, but that he was looking forward to reaping the rewards.

The Old Lady have been praised by many for their approach in the transfer market so far, including Real Madrid director Jorge Valdano who has enthused that Juventus have rediscovered their greatness.

Meanwhile, it is likely to be some time before Melo is partnered by Momo Sissoko in midfield as the Malian is still suffering from a foot injury.

According to La Stampa, no return date has been set for the midfielder but the 24-year-old does not need to undergo further surgery.
