Everton midfielder Leon Osman aims to test himself against Juventus star Andrea Pirlo in the US.

Osman is a big fan of the Italian veteran.

"When you're growing up watching football and watching other leagues you come across players you admire and think are unbelievably good players - and for me he is certainly one of them," he told the Liverpool Echo.

"He's one of the top midfielders in European football and if selected I'd love to come up against him."
