Villarreal striker Giuseppe Rossi turned down Tottenham and will join a club that can win trophies – agent

Villarreal striker Giuseppe Rossi is ready to move but will join only a club that will win trophies in the immediate future, claims his agent.
The 24-year-old has been the subject of transfer speculation for a long time with Italian giants Juventus and AC Milan both said to be keen for his signature. In January, English club Tottenham Hotspur came with a €30 million (£26.4m) offer but their bid was rejected.
Rossi’s agent, Federico Pastorello, has now explained the reasons why Spurs’ offer was turned down and has opened the door to a Juventus move.
“It is true, Juventus have asked for the player as is usual for a big club to do,” said Pastorello, according to Goal.com Italy. “Last year they made an offer to Villarreal for a loan deal with the right to sign on a permanent contract, but the Spanish club rejected it.
“Tottenham came in January and in economic terms, it was a great opportunity but a player like Rossi at this point in his career can move ahead and join a club that guarantees that he can win something important.
"There are few such clubs and one of them is Juventus despite their recent years of difficulty. Rossi is, of course, sensitive to the idea of returning to Italy.”
Rossi joined Villarreal from Manchester United in 2007 and has established himself as one of the best strikers in the Spanish Primera Division. La Liga champions Barcelona are also reportedly interested in him.
