The Bianconeri will be confronting the Ligue 1 club on April 14, and Raggi expects great things from 19-year-old poacher Martial.

“He's the kind of striker that I'd recommend to any team,” the defender told gianlucadimarzio.com.

“He's ready for the next level, he just has to stay focused without becoming full of himself, because he's still young.

Monaco's Andrea Raggi warns Juventus about star striker Anthony Martial and looks forward to their Champions League clash.

The Bianconeri will be confronting the Ligue 1 club on April 14, and Raggi expects great things from 19-year-old poacher Martial.

“He's the kind of striker that I'd recommend to any team,” the defender told gianlucadimarzio.com.

“He's ready for the next level, he just has to stay focused without becoming full of himself, because he's still young.

“He has enormous potential and if we look at the last month, you could say that he just has to graze the ball to score a goal.

“I think he's a well-rounded striker because he combines speed with tremendous dribbling abilities.”

Ex-Empoli defender Raggi also sees one of their strengths in Coach Leonardo Jardim, and is delighted at the prospect of playing football at these levels.

“Jardim is fantastic and I believe he can go a long way. He knows Italian football well and he's aware that Juventus have some terrific players.”

Monaco were on paper the ‘easiest’ draw for Juve, despite eliminating Arsenal in the Round of 16 on away goals.

“Being able to play a Champions League quarter-final is a privilege you're seldom granted in life, all the more so when you're a Monaco player. Everybody wrote us off earlier in the year, when we were still in the group stage.

“Against Arsenal everybody thought we were doomed, but we all know how things turned out.

“Juventus are outstanding, no doubt, but we'll give it all until the end because I believe that every match writes its own story.”
