'Grazie maestro.'
The Old Lady of Serie A, today, confirmed that Andrea Pirlo will be playing his football in New York later this year.
Juventus waved goodbye to the Italian midfielder with two, simple words... followed by an essay on the man that sparkled with the Bianconeri for four seasons.
In the piece entitled
Grazie Maestro, Juve laud Pirlo for his contribution to the club.
They claim his refined simplicity and style of play was 'the essence of football' and thank The Professor for bringing greater success to Italy's greatest team.

In return, Pirlo has sent this heartfelt message to the Juve faithful.
