Juventus defender Leonardo Bonucci has congratulated Roma boss Luciano Spaletti for 'giving great character' to the Giallorossi.

After speaking about interest from Manchester City, and thanking the fans for support over his ill son, he looked forward to when Juve play Roma on December 17th.

"Are Roma playing better than Juve? I will just have to congratulate Spalletti who is giving great character to the team," the Viterbo-native told la Domenica Sportiva. "We'll see in a month, it will certainly be a beautiful game.

"Regarding preparation, what we have failed to do is train consistently because we are playing so much. In January and February commitments diminish and we will have time to work, especially in the Christmas break.

"There, we will have to recharge our batteries because when March arrives we have so many games. I am sure that by working hard we will succeed.

“Who do I thank for becoming the strongest Italian defender? I became a great centre-back thanks to [Carlo] Perrone, the former Ascoli and Lazio man.”
