Andrea Pirlo is ‘a genius’ and Paul Pogba ‘a complete player’ according to Dino Zoff, but he fears Arturo Vidal will be missed.

The former World Cup winner gave his assessment of the Juventus squad, as well as discussing young goalkeeper Simone Scuffet’s loan to Como from Udinese.

"Pirlo is a genius, [Carlos] Tevez has decided a lot of games, but Vidal has those characteristics that I’ve always appreciated in a midfielder,” Zoff said to Tuttosport.

"Pirlo is a genius, [Carlos] Tevez has decided a lot of games, but Vidal has those characteristics that I’ve always appreciated in a midfielder,” Zoff said to Tuttosport.

“He’s an effective player in every part of the field, he scores and he defends.

“A little like Antonio Conte, who I knew as a player. Pogba? He’s a complete player.

"Neto is good, but things won’t change unless something abnormal happens.

“I don’t see a worried [Gigi] Buffon, I think he will be fixed as first choice.

“Scuffet is a goalkeeper who has potential and immediately showed interesting ability.

“Then I don’t know what happened. He is 19 years old so time is on his side and at Como he will be able to play.

“But I did find it strange that he couldn’t find a position in Serie A.”
