Vucinic: Savicevic urged me to choose Juventus

Former AS Roma striker Mirko Vucinic admits Montenegro FA president Dejan Savicevic urged him to join Juventus.

The striker has signed for the Turin giants in a €15m deal from Roma, a switch that former AC Milan man Savicevic was in favour of.

"A few articles came out linking me with Juventus," Vucinic told Tuttosport. "That's when Savicevic called me.

"He told me that if I had the chance to join Juventus then I should immediately accept. He stated that there was nothing to think about because Juve are Juve."
