Giorgio Chiellini admits that Juventus “can’t talk about the Scudetto”, targeting a Champions League place instead.

The Bianconeri have won three Serie A games in a row, but remain nine points adrift of leaders Inter, after a poor start to the season.

“I think in our position we can’t talk about the Scudetto,” Chiellini told Sky.

“We have to take it game-by-game. We’ve recovered some places in the last few games. The important thing is to be consistent between now and Christmas.

The Bianconeri have won three Serie A games in a row, but remain nine points adrift of leaders Inter, after a poor start to the season.

“I think in our position we can’t talk about the Scudetto,” Chiellini told Sky.

“We have to take it game-by-game. We’ve recovered some places in the last few games. The important thing is to be consistent between now and Christmas.

“We’d like to chip away some points from the teams who are ahead of us. The lead group, however, are going pretty well and they’ve shown that in these games.

“We have to be there, and be like a hammer, and try to slowly climb up the table.

“We mustn’t forget that the main target, as reiterated by the club during the international break, is to get into the top three.”

Chiellini was also asked about comparisons between Paulo Dybala and Carlos Tevez, with the former having scored the winner against Milan on Saturday.

“I think they’re very different players. In terms of their shots, their physical characteristics and also technically.

“The things they have in common is that they came to Juventus in succession and they’re Argentinian, but I see them as having very different characteristics.”
