I Want To Win Like Del Piero - Juventus Youngster Ekdal

Young Swedish attacking midfielder Albin Ekdal has said he is enjoying his time in

At only 19-years-old, Albin Ekdal is one for Juventus’ future, but for him at least, it seems the future has already started, he has been telling Tuttosport his impressions of his first season with the first team.

“I’m already much better than I was when I arrived. Here, everyone follows your progress and helps you out, it’s easier to get better. “I’m particularly pleased with how my movement has improved, and how I am now able to pick the right pass in a much shorter time.”

The youngster continued, “[Claudio] Marchisio and [Alessandro] Del Piero have helped me a lot since I started training with the first team.

"Del Piero is a really great guy, a real leader and it’s fantastic to play with him.”

The future, therefore, looks bright for this young player, and with the help of the young people who have made the grade, like Marchisio and Giorgio Chiellini, Ekdal too could soon become a valuable weapon in the Bianconeri’s arsenal.
