new player Lois Oppenda, who just signed by Juventus, admitted that he "didn't sleep and I can't wait to participate in my first game" the night before the transfer.

"I'm really happy to be here. The club and the fans, even at the airport, have a warm welcome. The facilities here are really good, and it's all good for performance, recovery and preparation for the game."

How did Openda help the team, and what is his biggest advantage? "My biggest advantage is speed and strength. I am a very fast player. I like to use space and I hope to bring it to the team and bring some goals to the team."

"I have a little knowledge of Italian football. I often watch this league and have played against several Serie A teams. I know it is not easy to play in Serie A because there are many excellent teams and strong defense, but I am very happy. I can't wait to participate in the first game for the team."

25-year-old Openda played 93 times for RB Leipzig and scored 41 goals. He started playing for the Belgian national team in 2022, and has played 27 times and scored 3 goals so far. His debut at Juventus is likely to be a Serie A match against Inter Milan on September 13.

Naples sports director Manna signed 17-year-old Argentine genius Francisco Barrido from Juventus before the summer transfer window closed.

Manna has served as director of the Zebra Legion in the past, and in 2024 it was he who brought Barrido from Boca youth to Turin. However, the Argentine offensive midfielder left after only playing for Juventus for a year, and did not even represent Juventus' next generation in the game..

According to the Milan Sports Daily, Juventus has grand plans for the 17-year-old Argentina young talent, but failed to reach an agreement on a new contract renewal that expires in 2026. The pink sports newspaper claims that Juventus' new management refused to meet the demands of the player's agent, leaving room for Naples to negotiate with Barrido and bring him to the Maradona Stadium.

Barrido played for Juventus U16 and U17 and was supposed to play for the youth team coached by Simeone Paddoin this season. Barcelona were also interested in Barrido when he joined Juventus last year, but the Argentine attacking midfielder will now head to Naples to continue his career.
