Giovinco set for Juve exit

(GSM) – Juventus midfielder Sebastian Giovinco has revealed that he will leave the Turin club if he is benched for another season.

The 23-year-old has been regarded as one of the hottest young prospects in Serie A, but has struggled to make an impact in the Bianconeri ranks after returning from his loan spell at Empoli in the summer of 2008.

After spending another season on the sidelines as Juve struggled in the league, Giovinco now has his eyes on a move.

“If the club do not want me, what would I be staying here for?” he told Tuttosport.

“After two seasons I won’t be spending another year languishing on the bench, it wouldn’t make any sense.

“I don’t even think I deserve the bench. Better yet, I’m sure of it. I want to play consistently, that’s the only thing I’m demanding.”

Furthermore, Giovinco believes that the finger of blame should be pointed firmly at the club for failing to use his talent effectively.

“Would it mean I have failed if I quit Juve? Not at all,” he said.

“If anything, it would be a failure for the club, who have not believed in me. In the long run I think I will prove them wrong. I am more than convinced they will regret it.”
