Pjanic reveals the reason why he will be wearing number 5 next season
“I knew then [Juventus] as rivals, now I know then from inside. I’ve seen many things and I’ve understood why it is so difficult to beat them. I here, I am happy and I am available for the rest of the team to win trophies. We are working hard. There is a difference between where I was in the past and where I am today.”
“The game against AS Roma will be special for me. I spent five amazing years at the club, I love the city, but now I am only focused on my new club. Many people have been sending me text messages since I arrived here. I was welcomed very well and I understood I am part of a group with real men and true champions.”
“I already worked with a free kick specialist like Juninho Pernambucano when I was at Lyon. Each player has different styles and techniques. I am still improving mines.”
“The most important thing is to keep the trophies won last season and our target will be to win everything. Whatever team we’ll be facing, whatever competition we’ll be playing, our objective will be the victory.”
“I will be wearing the number five. I used to have number 15 at AS Roma, but it is not available here (Barzagli’s number). I chose the number five because it is the same worn by one of my idols: Zinedine Zidane.”
“I talk to Benatia [target of Juventus] every day. Even if the left AS Roma two years ago, we’ve always been in touch since then. We are on very good terms and I can say nothing more because there is nothing more to say. He’s a great person and a special player.”
