Thiago Motta is a Brazilian-born Italian professional footballer who plays for French club Paris Saint-Germain F.C. mainly as a central midfielder.

Motta spent his early career at Barcelona, where he was injury-prone. He also played two-and-a-half seasons with Internazionale before joining Paris Saint-Germain, winning 21 major titles between the three clubs combined.

Born in Brazil, Motta is also a citizen of Italy. He represented the latter national team since 2011, appearing at the 2014 World Cup and two European Championships, gaining silver medal at Euro 2012.

A combative and experienced player, Motta is usually deployed as either a defensive or central midfielder, but he is capable of playing in various other midfield positions due to his tactical intelligence and versatility. In the Italian national team, under Prandelli, he was on occasion deployed as a deep-lying playmaker or an attacking midfielder, due to his ability to set the tempo of his team's play in midfield with his passing. His most prominent traits are his ball control, vision and passing range, although he has also been praised for his tackling, ability to read the game, and consistent defensive attributes as a ball winner.

Due to his physical strength and heading accuracy, Motta excels in the air, and also possesses a powerful long-range shot. Despite his skills, he has also been criticised for his aggression on the pitch, and for his lack of pace.

Juventus Football Club (BIT: JUVE) (from Latin iuventus: youth) commonly referred to as simply Juventus or Juve, is a football club based in Turin, Italy. With the exception of one season, the club has spent its entire history in the top flight of Italian football, where it plays in the Serie A today.

Juventus is the most successful team in the history of Italian football. Overall, the club have won 51 official trophies, more than any other Italian team; 40 in Italy, which is also a record, and 11 in European and world competitions. The Old Lady is the third most successful club in Europe and the sixth in the world with the most international titles officially recognised by one of the six continental football confederations and FIFA.

The club was the first Italian and Southern European side to have won the UEFA Cup. In 1985, Juventus, the only team in the world to have won all official international cups and championships (which includes all official European competitions and the Intercontinental Champions Clubs' Cup), became the first club in the history of European football to have won all three major UEFA competitions.

In Italy, Juventus is the club which has the biggest fan base, having also one of the largest numbers of supporters in the world, with a total of 170 million Juventus's tifosi worldwide. The club is a founding member of the European Club Association, which was formed after the dissolution of the G-14, a collection of Europe's most elite clubs.

At present, the bianconeri play their home games at the Stadio Olimpico di Torino while the stadium which the club actually owns, Stadio delle Alpi is undergoing long-term structural changes and will not be completed for use until 2011.<\/P>","D5AF1249DEAE15446FB07F95BE07BAC61FCF1CF21901A599":"1","729294714CECF588":"
