Lapo Elkann insists Juventus are on right track

Juventus patron Lapo Elkann insists he's satisfied with the work being done this season.

Speaking before their 3-3 draw with Siena, Elkann said he was happy with their transfer policy and the impact of coach Alberto Zaccheroni since his New Year arrival.

Elkann said: "I am a fan who got a tattoo of the club badge during the difficult times and I cheer them on when it goes well or badly. It's total devotion.

"Now Juve are launching interesting young players like Antonio Candreva. I'm so happy that they are back on track and are fighting for the result again. It's also true that we Juventini have been spoilt over the years."

Club patron Elkann has never met current Coach Alberto Zaccheroni, whose contract expires at the end of the season.

"He is doing very well and it's clear for all to see. He doesn't talk much, as he lets his actions speak for him. I doff my cap to him."
