The new signing Andrea Pirlo thanked the fans of the Turin team for the warm welcome.

It is worth noting that the former midfielder represented one of the fiercest competitors of the 'old lady' - AC Milan - just ten years ago.

"From the first day of training, I felt a huge enthusiasm around us," said Pirlo.

"I want to thank the fans for their support to me and the club. It was an amazing start and now it's time for us, the players, to respond with actions on the field."

The former AC Milan playmaker is ten years younger than his new coach, Antonio Conte, so he knows his abilities well on the field.

"The coach on the field was a true champion and winner. He has already proven that he is the same as a team strategist. From the very first day, he started instilling his mentality in us.

"Juventus has always been the team I had to overcome, but now I am here to win wearing these honorable jerseys," the defender concluded.
