Juventus general manager, Beppe Marotta, spoke about Marchisio to Mediaset: "Claudio was born at  Juve and he's a model of Juventus player. It would be a mistake to transfer him".

On Krasic: "We are very close to Krasic. He will be in Italy tomorrow for a check up. After that, we will be ready to sign him. In the next days there will be other acquisitions. Dzeko? With the arrival of Krasic the negotiation is virtually closed because we can acquire only one non-EU player. However, the real problem was Wolfsburg who did not want to transfer the player".
