Udinese star Antonio di Natale has explained why he rejected a move to Juventus.

Toto' turned down an offer to join Juventus over the summer and was also linked with other top clubs.

"I had sworn to President Giampaolo Pozzo that I would end my career at Udinese and my word is worth more than any signature on a contract.

"Besides, I didn't go to my hometown club Napoli, so how could I change my mind to join Juve? Many years ago there were some talks when Pierpaolo Marino was the director general, then nothing ever came of it. Aurelio De Laurentiis? He never called me."
