Hercules is the one for Trezeguet

(GSM) – David Trezeguet has revealed that he will be fulfilling a dream by playing in Spain as he edges closer in completing his move to Primera Division new boys Hercules.

“I’m very happy to be in Alicante and I’m going to complete a dream. After spending 10 years in a league like the Italian, having played at a club as important as Juventus, having won so many titles and being the leading foreign goalscorer of the team, this for me is a new adventure.”

Hercules suffered a 1-0 defeat at home to Athletic Bilbao in their opening Primera Division match this weekend, and their next fixture sees them make the daunting trip to champions Barcelona following the international break.
