Federico Bernardeschi has fuelled speculation linking him with Juventus as the winger asks “who wouldn’t like to play” for the Bianconeri.
Juve have emerged as the frontrunners for Bernardeschi’s signature in recent weeks, and the Fiorentina starlet confessed his admiration for the Old Lady, despite the rivalry shared by the two clubs.
“I had a good season, I grew like many of my Fiorentina teammates,” he told Gazzetta dello Sport.
“I grew and noticed it too. I tried doing harder things with more conviction.
“But now I have to confirm [my growth] and, if possible, improve further. I’m ready to start again.
“Where? I think with Fiorentina at their training camp. Juve? I don’t know, I’m calm and I’m in no hurry.
“I’ve always thought that everyone should do their job [first and foremost]. I did mine, which was to try to play well.
“It’s now with my agent and the club. I won’t interfere, but I repeat, I’m calm and I’m in no hurry. Still, who wouldn’t like to play for Juventus?
“Let’s just say it’s a bit of a strange time for me at the moment.”
