Captain Chiellini had a big part in Italy’s first European title since 1968 last month. The 112-time Italian international was named the best defender of the tournament by UEFA. La Squadra Azzurra was too strong for England in the final at Wembley after penalties.
Chiellini has never won the Champions League with Juventus. Last season, the team of then coach Andrea Pirlo was eliminated by FC Porto in the round of 16. ‘Juve’ has set themselves the goal of the ‘Cup with the Big Ears’ since the arrival of Cristiano Ronaldo in 2018.
With Chiellini in the ranks, Juventus are currently preparing for another season in Serie A under the returning coach Massimiliano Allegri.
