Wojciech Szczesny says he is ready to change his game for Juventus boss Maurizio Sarri and adapt to his high defensive line.

Szczesny was tried out in his new role against Tottenham Hotspur on Sunday but was caught out by a last-minute Harry Kane lob as Juve fell to a 3-2 defeat in their International Champions Cup opener.

“It’s very hot in Nanjing, but it’s a beautiful city and there are so many fans here,” remarked the goalkeeper at a Press conference for tomorrow’s clash with Inter.

“It’s very hot in Nanjing, but it’s a beautiful city and there are so many fans here,” remarked the goalkeeper at a Press conference for tomorrow’s clash with Inter.

“We’ll try to repay them tomorrow with a spectacle. Playing with a high line also changes the role of the goalkeeper because you have to help the team with balls further afield.

“We still need to find the right balance, but we’re working on it.”

The Pole then commented on the Bianconeri’s deals to sign Matthijs de Ligt and bring back fellow shot-stopper Gianluigi Buffon.

“I’m glad he's back, we all know how important he is to this club. I’ve had a great relationship with him for two years now

“Now he’s back with us and, for me, he’s a great acquisition. De Ligt’s a young lad and we’ll try to help him.

“He’s a great defender and I’m sure he has a great future here at Juventus.”
