Marko Pjaca’s agent has described his client as a mixture of Kaka and Cristiano Ronaldo.
The highly rated Croatian talent has recently completed a move to Juventus from Dinamo Zagreb for a fee of €23m.
“You will see. Soon he will surprise everyone,” Marko Naletilic responded when asked what the youngster could offer the Bianconeri.
“He can play as a striker, just off the main forward or as a ‘trequartista.’

“You will see. Soon he will surprise everyone,” Marko Naletilic responded when asked what the youngster could offer the Bianconeri.
“He can play as a striker, just off the main forward or as a ‘trequartista.’
“Yes, a ‘trequartista’ like Kaka, with the intention to attack. Comparisons are always difficult, but I see Marko as a mix of Kaka and Cristiano Ronaldo.
“To be clear, we are talking about a 21-year-old who still has to develop a lot more and overcome certain weak points.”
Naletelic added that Pjaca’s move to Turin was entirely for footballing reasons, insisting the player could have earned double had he moved elsewhere.
“There was an embarrassment of options. Milan, Liverpool, Borussia Dortmund, Schalke, Wolfsburg, Fiorentina.
“Marko, however, wanted Juventus at all costs. And I assure you that at Milan and other clubs he could have earned almost double.
“Initially he might not play much or come on as a substitute, but I am sure that in time he will become indispensable to Allegri. We are talking about a true talent. He can become a symbol for Juventus.”
