“They [Juventus] are the club who have believed in me and invested in me,” the 22-year-old told l’Eco di Bergamo.
“I’m glad and I thank them, but now I’m only thinking of Atalanta. I’ll give everything, because we want to give the fans this dream.
“It will be a difficult game, because we’re facing the strongest team in Europe. We’re doing well, but so are Juve and we’ll try to cause them problems, then if they’re better than us they’ll win.
“We’ll do a week of intense preparation, we’ll watch videos to try and understand the movements of their strikers, even if they’re very strong and unpredictable.
“We still need to pick up a lot of points, but our attitude is the right one. We’re ready to give our best in the next five games.”
