GENOA – Mattia Perin returns to Genoa after two seasons with the Juventus shirt where he won a Scudetto and an Italian Super Cup for a total of just nine appearances. Last year he was deputy Szczesny, this year, with Buffon's return from Paris Saint Germain, he had become the third goalkeeper of the bianconeri. The sale was inevitable since it no longer found space in Turin. A few months ago, he had been very close to Benfica, now his return on dry loan to Genoa has materialized.
"I leave one of the most famous teams in Europe after a season of fundamental importance and apprenticeship". With these words Mattia Perin greets Juventus on Instagram. The goalkeeper returns to Genoa , the team in which he has already played for seven seasons, after his experience in black and white characterized by many injuries.
“I have been in contact with champions of technical and human depth with few equals, from whom I have learned above all what 'having to win' means – writes Perin -. Juventus is a mental state, my first Scudetto, a gym of life, rigor, an opportunity that I could not miss. " There are no regrets in the goalkeeper's words.
"Many have asked me if after a similar season I regretted the choice made a season ago … NEVER, NEVER THOUGHT! I don't know what will happen in the future, I must focus now on a fascinating complex adventure but I hope, if I ever come back, to feel the same warmth and affection that you have given me in these hours and that have serenely accompanied my choice. Thanks Juventus "(source Ansa).
