The Bianconeri’s Chilean warrior is celebrating his 28th birthday today!
Grit, determination, drive.
These are just some of the attributes Arturo Vidal has brought to the Juventus table since joining from Bundesliga outfit Bayer Leverkusen back in 2011.
The Chilean international immediately caught the hearts and minds of the Bianconeri faithful when he made his debut as a second-half substitute versus Parma that year, firing in a spectacular volley from the edge of the area during Juventus Stadium’s maiden competitive fixture.
A fearless and tireless performer, Vidal never shirks away from a challenge, always putting his body on the line for the team and rising to the occasion when the going gets tough.
With 48 goals in 170 appearances in all competitions during his four-season spell at the club, the midfielder has proven himself a vital component of the team which has gone on to win four Serie A championships, two Italian Super Cups and a Coppa Italia title.
Everyone at the club would like to wish Arturo a very happy birthday and continued success in the famous black and white jersey.
Good morning! Here are the front pages from Italy main Sports newspapers La Gazzetta dello Sport, Corriere dello Sport, and Tutto Sport from Friday 22 May 2015.
Coffee or tea for you. I even want to make a toast! I am so happy today… and you bet super happy! It’s been years since coach Carlo Ancelotti left AC Milan and everything went downhill. Headlines are just like a ray of sun “un raggio di sole” warming up my heart. It’s no secret that I am a super Acelotti fan, and headlines today hinting the possibility of President Silvio Berlusconi to hire back Ancelotti!!!!! Am I dreaming? No, I am not. Reportedly, Berlusconi has even telephoned Ancelotti who is having a tough time in Real Madrid.
Berlusconi trying to convice Ancelotti to return. The promise? A 3 year contract with a competitive team… Ancelotti open to dialogue. AND I AM JUST DOING MY CHEERLEADING AND PRAYERS for ANCELOTTI to be back and revive this agonizing Milan. I would just pack my baggage to convince him too!
Here is the thing. I had said it so many times that Milan made a big mistake by selling Ibrahimovic, Thiago Silva, and getting rid of midfielder Andrea Pirlo. Well, say no more. I totally agree with Tutto Sport main headline stating that Juventus win while Galliani pays. After Pirlo and coach Massimiliano Allegri, it’s the turn for the ex Milan player Alessandro Matri proving to be a key transfer to Juventus as he scored the winner goal giving the Coppa Italia to Juve.
Transfer market news regarding Torino, there is Kamil Glik renewing his contract with a salary of a top player.
Juventus market now pointing at Khedira, forward Edison Cavani and Allan…. mamma mia… it will be an unstoppable Juve!

During Saturday’s Serie A encounter with the Partenopei, a large banner, designed by Bianconeri supporters from the ‘Scuola di Tifo’, will be on show in Juventus Stadium’s east stand
During the final home encounter of the season against Napoli this Saturday, a large banner designed by young Bianconeri supporters will be displayed in Juventus Stadium’s east stand.
The tribute to the team, created throughout the course of this 2014/15 season, has been made possible thanks to the ‘Scuola di Tifo’, an initiative which keeps children entertained in the Family Sector at the ground.
During matches, the youngsters are taught about fair play by their instructors, able to provide pre-match video messages of encouragement which are shown on the big screens inside the stadium and also take part in workshops where they create banners to support their heroes.
Furthermore, due to the closure of the away end to Napoli fans this weekend, 2,099 children from regional schools aged between seven and 14 will be attending the game in their place. This scheme has been organised by the club’s ‘Gioca con me… Tifa con me’ project which is developed in collaboration with Turin’s UNESCO Center.
Here are the match officials and fixture for the 2014-2015 Italian Serie A Week 37 – Thirty-seventh Round on Saturday 23, Sunday24, Monday 25 May 2015 as designated by the Italian Referee Association (AIA).
