Juventus signing Sami Khedira is happy to fill the void left by Andrea Pirlo.

Khedira has no problem being compared with Pirlo.

“It's wonderful to be compared to Pirlo, he's a fantastic player, he was a key part of his teams and Italian football in general for a long time.

“I'm a player who needs a bit of freedom - yes, to attack, but also to defend. I've already talked to [Massimiliano] Allegri, I'll play where the Coach wants. I'm available."
