The Italian international has moved from AC Milan to Juventus at the end of May, this year, and according to the retired defender, he has contributed to the bianconeri's unbeaten record at Serie A, so far this season.

"The beginning of the season with Juventus and Italy is surprising only to those who underestimated one of the strongest players in the world throughout the last decade," he added.
