Juventus coach Ciro Ferrara talked about the sale of midfielder Cristiano Zanetti to Fiorentina and the team's situation.It once seemed certain that Danish midfielder Christian Poulsen would leave Juventus this summer after just one season in Turin. However, the club's surprising decision to sell Cristiano Zanetti to Fiorentina has changed the situation.

Coach Ciro Ferrara revealed that the former Sevilla player will no longer leave the club."Zanetti had this chance to leave for Fiorentina and extend the length of his contract, and he did," he said to RealSports.it. "I don't want to force anyone to stay. In any case we are covered in that role, also because at this point Poulsen will no longer leave."Christian has always trained with seriousness and effort and I also complimented him for the professionalism he showed during the training camp."On the team's situation as a whole, Ferrara commented: "We are doing well despite the defeat to Villarreal. One defeat cannot change our plans or affect our confidence. We still have the intention to build a team which has consistency and which aims for important targets."

After impressing in the Peace Cup, in which they beat Real Madrid 2-1, Juventus recently stumbled to a 4-1 defeat to Villarreal.
