Juventus director of sport Fabio Paratici has welcomed their Champions League draw with Lyon.
The two teams will meet in the round of 16.
Paratici said, “I have half a smile, because we know with the other potential opponents in pot two it could've been a lot worse. We know the Champions League is always challenging."
Paratici also talked about last summer's key signing Matthijs de Ligt, who won the Golden Boy award in 2018 for best young player.
“I'm sure for de Ligt it was a nice evening last year, we talked about it.
“Surely he could visit Turin and feel the environment of the city and Juventus.
“For me it's an important evening in a city that has been my home for 10 years, I dedicate the award to all the employees who have worked with me."
