Ever since Juventus started scouting Chiesa, Andrea Pirlo thought bringing him to Juventus was a fantastic idea. This is a player with a football pedigree due to his father’s past as a Serie A star, he has it in his blood. Now at Juventus, he is living his dream thanks to Pirlo: “What characterizes me this year, has been the continuity in my performances,” Chiesa told Sky Sport Italia via Football Italia.
“That’s what I have improved the most. Playing and training with the champions has helped me, as did the coach and the mentality that exists here at Juventus. Namely that of always wanting to improve and win. Pirlo has helped me a lot in recent months. Especially for the trust he has shown me. I just have to thank him, every day he gives med advice to improve my game, from the defensive to the attacking phase, and this has helped me a lot.”
