Galatasaray coach Terim hails Juventus trio: I hope Chiesa can do better than his father

Galatasaray coach Fatih Terim says he continues to follow Italian football closely.

Terim has coached AC Milan and Fiorentina during his career.

“Enrico Chiesa is one of the best players I ever had, so for emotional reasons, I prefer him to his son, but Federico did really well in his first season at Juventus. He's got great potential and I hope he can do even better than his father," he told Corriere della Sera.

“I have great respect for (Giorgio) Chiellini and (Leonardo) Bonucci, any coach would love to work with legends like that."

Italy also have a great deal of youth in the side ready to break out at Euro 2020.

“I keep a close eye on Nicolò Barella, Manuel Locatelli, Alessandro Bastoni, Giacomo Raspadori, as well as Nicolò Zaniolo and Sandro Tonali, who aren't in the squad. There are many who can make the difference for Italy."
