Pirlo accepts MLS offer?


Spanish media claim that Juventus midfielder Andrea Pirlo has accepted an offer from MLS side New York City FC.

AS claims that Saturday’s Champions League final against Barcelona will be the 36-year-old’s final game for the Old Lady before a move to the USA.

The Spanish newspaper claims that the MLS side turned to Pirlo after Xavi turned them down in favour of a move to Qatari side Al-Sadd.

Pirlo has been strongly linked with a move away from Turin this summer and the Bianconeri have already begun reinforcing their midfield with the expected signing of Real Madrid’s Sami Khedira.

The playmaker spoke on Monday of how he believes Barca are favourites for Saturday’s final, which he described as “a unique and special game”.

If the part I bolded is true, then Xavi may have made the biggest contribution to our team yet.

(#3 - I'm on fire)
 
Here is the article reporting this:

Andrea Pirlo jugará el sábado su último partido con la Juventus de Turín. Pese a que se especuló con la posibilidad de que el medio italiano sólo abandonase el club en caso de ganar la final de Berlín, el futbolista parece tenerlo bastante claro y aceptará la propuesta que le han hecho los gestores del New York City, con Ferran Soriano a la cabeza.

Translation:
Pirlo will play his last game with Juventus of Turin on Saturday. Although it was speculated that the Italian midfielder would only abandon the club if he won the final in Berlin, the player seems to be pretty clear and accepts the proposal that has been made by managers of New York City, with Ferran Soriano to the head. (I suppose they mean "in his head")

Welcome to the club, old man. NYC's #1 Nursing Home is delighted to have you and Lamepard onboard.

Not happy with this signing. This team needs youth. Want to sign international players? Go ahead but can they be 28,29 or 30 years old for fucksakes?

SMH
 
I don;t watch Italian football, and have never really seen Pirlo play except in the WC. Is he really going to be that awesome for us? Anyone have any concerns?
