Juventus captain Giorgio Chiellini regrets not playing with Zlatan Ibrahimovic during his career.

Chiellini says the AC Milan veteran brought the best out of him when they faced eachother.

He said, “He is the opponent who got the best out of me. He was 24 years old and so strong physically, just the fact I could keep up with him and showed no fear earned me his respect. I had to give my best every time against him.

“Unfortunately, Cristiano Ronaldo scored many, many goals past us before he joined Juventus, so thankfully he is now my teammate! He is on another level, you can tell that and it's only right to admit it.

“When you have a champion like this, you need to get the most out of him."
