Juventus centre-back Leonardo Bonucci has said that he is confident that Carlos Tevez will excel at the club.
The Argentinian striker joined the Bianconeri last week in a €9 million transfer from Manchester City.
“The no.10 shirt will be a big responsibility for Tevez, but I am certain that he will honour it,” Bonucci told Sky Sport Italia.
“Of course, for all Juventus fans that shirt belongs to Del Piero and I don’t think anyone will be able to replicate what Alessandro did.”
Bonucci also commented on his Azzurri teammate, Bologna attacking midfielder Alessandro Diamanti, who has been linked with a move to Turin.
“He’s a really brilliant lad and a great player. He could improve the Juventus squad.”
Diamanti impressed in an Italy shirt once again on Sunday, scoring a terrific free-kick goal against Uruguay in the Confederations Cup third place play-off.
