The former Roma boss spoke to uefa.com ahead of next Saturday’s showdown in Berlin, where one of the two clubs will complete the Treble.

“Three seasons ago I was lucky enough to be the Roma manager. So for the last two years I have been following Italian football. At home I watch lots of Roma games and Juve games, as a fan … I follow Italian football.

“I watched Juventus in recent years with Antonio Conte. They were a very hardworking team who I think played good football.

“Maybe they were unlucky in Europe, but they had the ability to go a lot further in the Champions League. They are the Italian team who have been playing at the highest level in recent years

“So get ready for a final between two teams fighting for the ball. Juventus are able to shut down and play their own way without being punished. They can maintain possession. They are capable of counterattacking.

“I think they are a very well-rounded team. And I think you can see what the manager brings to the table.”
