Torino president Cairo: Juric has the signings he wanted

Torino president Urbano Cairo insists they delivered everything coach Ivan Juric wanted during the summer market.

he Granata secured deals with Dennis Praet, David Zima and Josip Brekalo in the closing days of the transfer market.

“Juric is a very good coach. Having signed him was certainly not an austerity decision," Cairo told at the Festival of TV and New Media, which is taking place in Cuneo.

“Six days before the market closed, he wanted to give his opinion, make his cry of pain and I respect him a lot. But I was already looking around, so much that important players arrived, the ones he wanted."

“For football, it's the worst crisis of the last 30 years," he continued. “Clubs have lost 30 per cent of revenues, while costs have remained unchanged.

“It's a year of transition, but it will be different from the last two."
