Juventus not to sign any top player, says Conte

 MILAN, Dec. 16 (Xinhua) -- Juventus head coach Antonio Conte said on Sunday his club will not sign any top player due to economic conditions.

The January transfer¹ window opens soon and newspapers in Italy claimed Juventus is finalising a deal to sign Didier Drogba, but Conte dismissed² it.

"I know full well that this is a critical moment on an economic level for many clubs. We won' t sign any top player, because we are not in a position to do so. Neither are the other sides in Serie A," he said.

Conte insisted that the race is still open for the Serie A title following Juventus' 3-0 win over Atalanta at home on Sunday.

"It went well and was a great performance. We had the right approach and it wasn' t easy against a side like Atalanta," he said.

"The season isn' t over yet. We' re still going and it' s never simple to confirm a victory a year later. We try to prove ourselves through good football and organisation³. At the end of the day we' ll see where we are," he said.?
