Nestor Sivori, son of Juventus legend Omar, has urged the Bianconeri to sign Bordeaux striker Fernando Cavenaghi.
Omar Sivori is widely regarded as one of the best players, not only in Juventus’ history, but in the history of football itself.
The Argentine played for Juve from 1957 to 1965, achieving great success, while after his playing days he worked as a full-time scout for the club in Argentina, until his death in 2005.
Sivori’s son, Nestor, is a scout and agent himself, and he has urged his father’s beloved club to sign Bordeaux hitman Fernando Cavenaghi.
“If you asked me to suggest the names of three River Plate players: I would say the striker Radamel Falcao, the midfielder Oscar Ahumada, and the 19-year-old attacker Andrés Rios,” said Sivori, whose father also had a big attachment with River.
“But there is an ace who more than anyone else deserves to be a Bianconero. Fernando Cavenaghi of Bordeaux. He is 24 and he scored again at the weekend.
“He is a bomber like Crespo. He is already Juventino in his soul. My father made him love the Old Lady, as they always used to speak when Cavenaghi was in the River Plate youth team. My dad was like a father to Cavenaghi.”
Sivori also criticised the Juventus hierarchy for their transfer policy last summer, saying that many of the players bought were not up-to-standard.
"It is not easy to play for Juve, we need to know the level of players. For example, I saw that last summer Almirón, Criscito, Tiago and Andrade joined. They are not Juve players,” he concluded.
