Trezeguet joins Hercules
French striker David Trezeguet has ended his 10-year stay with
Juventus after reaching a mutual agreement with the club to
terminate his contract. Trezeguet has signed with Spanish club
Hercules on a free transfer.
The 32-year-old striker joined Juventus in 2000 from AS Monaco,

2010-2011 Serie A season and currently sits fourth among Juventus’
all-time goal scorers.
Trezeguet was part of the French squad that won the 1998 World
Cup, earning 71 caps for France before retiring from the
international stage in 2008
