"We had talked to each other a couple of times; we were looking for a player with these characteristics. He’s fast, technical, strong in one-on-one, and he attacks deep.

"He seems like a complete winger to me, but until I train with him, I can’t tell,” he said after a friendly against Serie A rivals, Juventus.
