Juventus can ‘dream’ of the Champions League final, according to defender Andrea Barzagli.

The Bianconeri are in the Quarter Finals of the competition, with Ligue 1 side Monaco standing between them and semi-final place.

“Last year we had a bad Champions League campaign,” Barzagli admitted in an Italy Press conference.

“This year we started with another challenge. The change of Coach has given us a different exhilaration, to try and surprise.

“This year we started with another challenge. The change of Coach has given us a different exhilaration, to try and surprise.

“The Champions League is also a matter of luck, of the right moments. I don’t know how far we can go.

“The final? We have to believe in it, why not dream? We go onto the pitch believing, but also knowing that there are teams at a higher level than us.

“There’s a big difference in mentality and consistency of results [between Juve and the other Serie A teams].

“In a one-off game anything can happen, we’ve shown ourselves to be the strongest in recent years.

“We can also look at the Europa League, it’s important that the mentality of some teams has changed.

“I hope that someone [Napoli or Fiorentina] can get to the final of the Europa League and we can do the same in the Champions League.

“We can bring Italian football back to where it should be.”
