Roma coach Garcia shrugs off Osvaldo going to Juventus

AS Roma coach Rudi Garcia has shrugged off Juventus signing their former striker Dani Osvaldo.

The Giallorossi have closed the gap on leaders Juventus to six points, but the Scudetto race could be transformed by the arrival of former Roma striker Osvaldo on loan from Southampton.

"I have a lot of respect for the players who have left Roma. Osvaldo is a quality player who went in England and now returned to Italy.

"These are the strange things that happen on the market, but it changes nothing for us. It's not my problem. It might be a problem when we face Juve in the penultimate round of the season, but there's time for that.

"I don't find it particularly normal for a team to change in January, so I am happy the transfer window is now closed."
