Juventus sign Alessandro Matri on loan

Juventus have signed Alessandro Matri on loan from AC Milan for the rest of the 2014-15 season.

The 30-year-old, who represented Juve between 2011 and 2013 before leaving for Milan, has struggled for form at the San Siro and spent the second half of last season on loan at Fiorentina.

Matri then joined Genoa on loan last summer – netting seven league goals in 16 games for the Italian club this season.

However, Juve have now brought the Italian back to the club for the remainder of the campaign.

"Alessandro Matri has today returned to Juventus after agreeing terms on a loan switch until 30 June 2015," read a statement on the club's official website.

Matri has gained six caps for Italy since making his international debut in 2011.
