Zaza from Sassuolo, according to their official website.
Juventus
boss Massimiliano Allegri who recently sealed a new one year deal has
strengthen his attack earlier today with the signing of Simone Zaza.
The
Italian outfit have now sealed three strikers so far this summer, Paulo Dybala from
Parma, Mario Mandzukic from Atletico Madrid and Zaza.

who joined his childhood club Boca Juniors recently. Tevez left after playing two
successful seasons in Turin.
Zaza
who scored 11 goals for the Serie A side last term has sealed a five year deal.
The fee for the Italian attacker is reportedly around £12.75 million which will
be paid in a course of three years.
The

already have a fine attacking line. He will be fighting the two new strikers Paulo
Dybala and Mario Mandzukic.
Meanwhile, Italian midfielder Andrea Pirlo has also left the Champions for the Major Soccer League side New York City. But the Italian have already sealed the deal of German midfielder Sami Khedira from La Liga giants Real Madrid.
