Juventus defender Martin Caceres has revealed he is already eyeing up Serie A and Champions League success, fresh from completing his move back to Turin.
The 24-year-old rejoined the Bianconeri in January after previously spending the 2009-10 campaign at the club on loan from Barcelona, and during his first press conference since his transfer, he intimated that the sky is the limit as far as his objectives are concerned.
"The move represents a challenge for me to show my worth," Caceres was quoted as saying by Tuttosport.
"I want to win Serie A, and then also the Champions League."
Caceres also spoke of the honour of following in the footsteps of fellow Uruguayan Paolo Montero, who also wore the No.4 jersey during his successful nine-year spell at Juventus, and claims he will give everything to his new side's cause.
"Wearing the No.4 shirt is certainly a source of pride but also a responsibility," he continued. "I hope to do my best to make the fans as happy as he did.
"It makes no difference where I play; the important thing is to play. If I must choose, I do like central defence the most, but it does not matter," concluded Caceres.
The defender is in line to make his second Juventus debut on February 5 against Siena.
