Juventus captain Alessandro del Piero won't give up on winning a Ballon d'Or.
"It depends on how our Champions League campaign goes. Why not think big? You need to have ambition for the biggest trophies," the 33 year-old said.
"I don't feel old because I love my work and am happy to do well. While I manage to retain a certain level of quality, I can continue to play.
"Do I have a message for Marcello Lippi? Yes, Merry Christmas! The 2010 World Cup is an objective of mine and I feel a part of the Nazionale."
