Khedira: I want to be a leader at Juventus

New Juventus signing Sami Khedira has revealed that he wants to become a leader for the Bianconeri, while admitting he wants to win the Champions League this season.

The midfielder arrived on a free transfer from Real Madrid earlier this summer, and he did not hold back in letting his ambitious goals for the upcoming season be known.

“It is my personal ambition to become a leader for this team,” the 28-year-old stated while speaking with As.

Juventus fell just short of winning the Champions League last season, falling 3-1 to Barcelona in the final, but the German is hopeful to improve on that in next year’s edition.

“When you lose a final, next time you want to win it even more. It will not be easy, but the quality of this team is very high.”

Khedira struggled for playing time last season, featuring in 17 matches in all competitions for Los Blancos last season.
