Udinese right-back joins Juve's push for Serie A title

Juventus have captured Udinese right-back Marco Motta to aid their push for the Serie A title next term. The 24-year-old completed a medical in Turin on Friday and will initially join on loan for €500,000 (£413,000), with a right-to-buy inserted into the agreement worth €5m (£4.13m). Motta has signed a four-year contract, with the Bianconeri announcing the deal was complete "pending certain contractual aspects." The defender, who is capped at every level up to Under-21 and played for Italy in the 2008 Olympics, spent last season at Roma as part of a co-ownership agreement. He is Juve's fifth summer signing and will join his new team-mates on their pre-season training camp in Pinzolo.
