“When I signed for Juventus I knew I’d find a lot of competition. You play in three competitions here, it’s normal for a top club to have several options in attack.

“I never got depressed though, and I never will, I’m aware of what I can do. I have three young, strong strikers alongside me in [Paulo] Dybala, [Alvaro] Morata and [Mario] Mandzukic.

“I try to watch them every day, to learn from them and get better all the time.”
