Alex Sandro: ‘Fee not important’

By Football Italia staff

Juventus’ Alex Sandro says ‘I don’t care how much I cost’ and that ‘it’s an honour to train with Patrice Evra.’

The left-back arrived at the Old Lady for €26m from Porto in the summer, but has made only five league appearances so far.

However, the Brazilian isn’t worried about the fee and spoke of his admiration for the Bianconeri’s veterans.

"The words of Buffon, Evra and the more experienced players are very encouraging for all of us,” he told Sky Sport Italia.

“They are very important both on and off the field.

“I don’t care about how much I cost, I’m working to improve day by day, both in defence and in attack. I’m still developing.

“Juve always play to win and we always try to improve game after game.

“Roberto Carlos sees himself in me? It’s a real honour that he spoke so highly of me.

“I hope to put his words into practice. I've been a fan of Evra since he played in Manchester - for me it is an honour to train with him."
