During his introductory press conference at Allianz Stadium, Juan David Cabal expressed immense excitement about joining Juventus. “Being linked with Juve is the best thing that has happened in my career. I have no words to express what I feel except ‘Wow,'” he said, capturing his enthusiasm for this significant career milestone.
Cabal shared that his move to Juventus is a dream come true for him and his family. “What do people in Colombia ask of me? To send them jerseys,” he joked. “For me and my family, it’s a dream to join one of the biggest teams in Italy and the world. Since I was a child, I had the black and white jersey with me. Now the dream continues, and it becomes about being an important player for Juventus.”
What Juan Brings to Juventus
“I want to bring all my abilities and my character to Juve, both on and off the field; I’m ready to do whatever the coach asks of me. My characteristics? In one word: ‘resilience.’ I have fought and continue to fight to achieve my dream. I have many role models at Juventus, from Cuadrado to Alex Sandro, and I want to become one of them.”
A United Team
“In the locker room, there are some leaders, like the Captain, but the beauty is that we are all united towards the same goal, ready to work to achieve it, and this makes us all leaders within the group. The coach told me to enjoy this experience, to work to always become a better player but also to be myself. I am convinced that Motta will help me understand myself better as a person, and I was very impressed by his trust.”
The Passion of the Fans
“Everything that is happening still makes me feel amazed; for me, it’s all a discovery, like the affection of the fans. My goal is to give back to them everything I can on the field.”
