Juventus captain Alessandro del Piero is delighted to be leaving the club as champions of Italy. Del Piero admits this Scudetto "has a special flavour for what happened in 2006" and his final year at Juventus.

"I start every year to win. Sometimes it doesn't happen - recently a lot - but this repays us with a very special flavour for what happened in 2006," said the captain.

"My experience here has been wonderful, with great happiness and enthusiasm, embracing my teammates tonight and in all the games whether I played or not. It was a little strange, but right now I only want to smile.

"In a few days we face the Coppa Italia Final, then there will be the time and the place to talk about the rest."
