Joe Hart completes Torino move

Hart-Torino
Joe Hart has completed a season-long loan move to Serie A side, Torino from Manchester City.
The England number one was forced to find another club after he lost his place to Willy Caballero at the start of the season.
The bad case for Hart was worsened as new coach Pep Guardiola also opted to sign Claudio Bravo from Barcelona effectively relegating the England international to third choice.
Having tied all the loose ends, Hart told Torino’s website, he is ready for the new challenge : “Suddenly, my career has taken an important turn…Torino’s offer came in the right moment, in the right manner. I am very excited to test myself in an important and beautiful league such as Serie A. He said.
“The history of goalkeepers in Italy is known everywhere. I am sure I will learn in Torino, too. For this reason I accepted President Cairo’s proposal.
“I have read an interview about ‘Toro’: the coach wants humility and ambition. I like that. That’s how I want to be.” Hart concluded
A statement on the City website read: “A popular, well-liked figure in the dressing room and a fans’ favourite thanks to his articulate, straight-talking candour in interviews, Hart now joins Turin-based Serie A outfit Torino for the remainder of the current campaign
“From everyone at the club, good luck and thank you, Joe!”

He may not play in his preferred position, but he does so from one of power Jurgen Klopp had barely mapped out his way to Melwood before he first commended James Milner’s cerebral comprehension of the game.  “A complete football player, the perfect professional, a machine” was the German’s assessment after a 1-1 draw at Tottenham last October; his first fixture as Liverpool’s manager. Right at the start of his tenure, it was apparent on the training pitches at the West Derby complex that there was very little Milner could not do, and even less that he did not understand. With Zeljko Buvac, Peter Krawietz and Pep Lijnders helping Klopp bank the smallest details from every session - supported by the performance analysis team - the decision to utilise Milner as a left-back for the season was logical rather than some elaborate experiment. “It was clear that if Millie was open for this position the
