Liverpool midfielder expects to make Juventus move permanent

Aquilani joined Juventus on loan late in the last transfer window and has impressed for the Turin giants.

“We will only speak with management in the Spring: March or April, and not any time prior,” Aquilani’s agent Franco Zavaglia told TuttoJuve.com.

“He is playing well, and as long as he does this, Liverpool will not be giving us a discount.

“I had told the press he was not a waste. Everyone has now realised how good a player he is.

“He has the ability to change a team, and am pleased not only for scoring, but also because of how he is playing. I also thank [Juventus coach Luigi] Del Neri for the words he spoke about Aquilani, which have given him motivation.”
