“I was 18 when I gave an interview in which I confessed my passion for Juventus,” said the 26-year-old.
“It's true, I watched a lot of Italian football and Juventus in particular. I liked Amauri, I watched him play and I he impressed me.
“In Mexico we watch European football and often we talk about footballers in European teams.”
Chicharito was linked to the Bianconeri in the last two transfer windows, but the player insists he is not interested in that possibility now.
“Right now I'm not thinking about the future, because I'm so focused on these decisive matches.
“I don't know if [Coach Carlo] Ancelotti was fair or not with me, I just think about playing, because I want to prove that I can be part of this team. Real Madrid are the best club in the world.”
