The Giallorosso midfielder is currently undergoing his medicals in Turin, ahead of formalising his transfer to the Old Lady.

“Nothing can surprise me anymore about what happens in the world of football,” Vucinic told Tuttosport. “Juventus are strengthening themselves even more.

“Pjanic is an important player. We're talking about a champion, the type that is decisive, and he proved that with Roma.

“Leaving the Giallorossi wasn't easy for me, but in the end I did not regret my decision. I was very happy at Juventus and I won a lot.

“In Rome there is more pressure. But in the Juventus changing room you can immediately perceive a unique winning mentality.

“Even if you snatch a draw at the 90th minute coming from behind, you won't see anyone cheerful or smiling. Instead, everyone is angry, because the only thing that matters is victory.”

Some believe that Pjanic will be the best possible replacement for former Juventus playmaker Andrea Pirlo.

“Andrea is special, unique. Playing with him I really understood that. I've never seen another player capable of receiving the ball in their own box, and then walking out of it calmly with the ball still at their feet.”
