Juventus announce summer tour of USA
Italian powerhouse Juventus have announced a summer tour of the USA as preparation for the 2011/12 season.
The Old Lady of Turin will travel to Philadelphia on July 19 for a three-match tour which will include a clash with Mexican outfit Club America at Citi Field Stadium (home of the NY Mets) in New York on the 26th.
Juve will be based in the States until August 1 but at this stage just the one match has been finalised which Mets executive vice-president Dave Howard is extremely excited about.
“We’re excited about hosting events like this, but we certainly intend to make money,” he told theNew York Times.
“That’s all part of the motivation of doing events like this.”
Juventus’ squad will include the likes of Italy veterans Alessandro Del Piero and Gianluigi Buffon, Brazilian Felipe Melo, Serbian star Milos Krasic and current Italy national team players Vincenzo Iaquinta and Girgio Chiellini.

It would be great if Juve were to play Real Salt Lake
Some day in the future.
Just an idea.
Excellent news! I would love to see Juve again.
Would you let me know how and when tickets go on sale
By email?
Many thanks
Fathers Day is coming up next weekend, and would love to give my dad tickets to see the Juventus in NY or PA. He has been a huge fan, ever since a young child... and would love the opportunity to see them in a game during thier visit to USA. Please email me how I can.
