Vincenzo Iaquinta targets Juventus return after Cesena loan

Cesena loanee Vincenzo Iaquinta has indicated he is looking to return to Juventus at the end of the season.

The 32-year-old striker has joined the relegation-contenders on a six-month loan deal after being subjected to the periphery of the squad at the Turin-based side, but he retains hope of being part of the Bianconeri's setup in the future.

"I still have 18 months left on my Juventus contract and I want to regain my place there," Iaquinta explained to the press.

"I do not think our rapport is over, when I stepped onto the field I always did well. My only problem was my constant injuries.

"I left Juventus and the coach [Antonio Conte] on good terms, and the fans always treated me well in Turin.

"I hope to do a good job at Cesena to return to Juve."

The 2006 World Cup winner signed for the Bianconeri from Udinese in 2007 in a deal worth €11.3 million.
