Juventus defender Matthijs de Ligt admits he's attracted by the prospect of emulating his agent Mino Raiola.

Former Ajax captain De Ligt was interviewed by France Football after he won the Kopa Trophy for best under-21 player in Europe of 2018-19.

“If I hadn't become a footballer, I would've become an agent to try and beat Mino Raiola!" laughed De Ligt.

"Or I would have tried to recruit him myself.

“All jokes aside, I never thought about what I could be. I was obsessed with becoming a footballer. My parents agreed, but I had to finish my studies first."
