BUFFON impressed by Pjaca

The Italian Legend has made a pledge to help the Croatian settle well in Italy owing to his humble nature.

Pjaca said to La Gazzetta dello Sport,

Buffon

“It’s a beautiful world [at Juventus], but I never doubted that, I was aware of it when I made my choice, when you arrive it doesn’t take long to figure out that you’re at a club with a unique history, like few others in the world.”

Pjaca feels he might not be played in his preferred role on the wings due to Coach Allegri's preference for a 3-5-2 formation. He said:

“In the 3-5-2 of the current Juve I can play as the second striker, at most pulling back a bit because I think I can also play as an attacking midfielder. My favourite position, though, is as a winger, preferably from the left where I can cut inside on my right foot."

“I have to work hard every day to improve, never losing my seriousness or concentration. Then my time will come, I’m sure. I am not worried [about being on the bench]. If anything I’m aware that this is Juventus, but I’m young and if I prove myself then I’ll get my chances, even at a club of this level.”

He added: “They’re all top players, but if I had to name one then I’d say Buffon. You just have to talk to him for a moment to realise you don’t have a player standing in front of you, but a legend.”
