Bayer Leverkusen boss Bosz: De Ligt great at 17

Bayer Leverkusen boss Peter Bosz is full of praise for Juventus defender Matthijs de Ligt ahead of their Champions League tie.

Bosz coached De Ligt at Ajax.

“When I was coaching Ajax he was only 17, but he was a great player even then," Bosz said.

“There are only a few talents like him around. Juve are a great team, who are difficult to face.

“Sarri loves to get his teams playing well. We've already seen it with Napoli and Chelsea."
