Juventus coach Conte: Europa League good for squad experience

Juventus coach Antonio Conte sees playing in the Europa League as valuable.

Juve go to Trabzonspor tonight defending a 2-0 aggregate lead.

"We are facing the Europa League with a great deal of enthusiasm and I include the whole squad. You saw how many games await us in the next few weeks.

"In the first leg the players who haven't had as much room did well, but tomorrow I expect them to do even better. If we do well, then we will continue in the competition, but I do admit I have to rotate the squad, otherwise we run huge risks.

"These games are also valuable, as they give the players more European experience. Some people forget our European adventure only began last season. It'll be tougher than in Italy, so we require a lot of patience and hard work."
