Official: Juventus Sign Tiago And Almiron

(Goal.com) - It has now been confirmed that the Old Lady have completed the signings of Tiago and Almiron.

While the Almiron deal was almost done yesterday, reports this morning had suggested that Tiago and Fabio Quagliarella had been signed last night.

There is no news on the Udinese striker yet (Udinese secured Quagliarella from Sampdoria yesterday), but Tiago has now completed his move from Lyon.

The former Braga, Benfica and Chelsea midfielder has signed a four year contract with the club, with Lyon making a cool 15 million. He had cost Chelsea 15 million, but Lyon had then snapped him up for just 10.

As for Almiron, Empoli were handed 7 million Euros by Juve, plus Giovinco on loan, and the co-ownerships of Paro and Volpato. He also signs a four year deal.

With these two moves, Juventus have completed one defensive and one midfield signing, something that was considered paramount.

However, more is to come, it seems. Some expect that the signing of Quagliarella is also close, with 'Corriere dello Sport' suggesting that a deal was struck with Udinese last night.

The two clubs have just done business over Iaquinta, and the Friuliani are keen to make an immediate profit on the 7 million they spent on half the player's registration.
