Salernitana attacker Franck Ribery says Juventus striker Dusan Vlahovic can match the exploits of Robert Lewandowski.

Ribery played with Vlahovic at Fiorentina and also was long a teammate of Lewandowski at Bayern Munich.

He told Tuttosport: “In terms of strength and mentality, they are similar. Dusan is a hard worker and never wants to lose. He'd be upset even when he doesn't win in training. It's not a detail, it's the spirit of winners."

So, can he become the new Lewandowski?

“Yes, provided that he continues to work hard and focuses on how to improve every day. Dusan is young and has great means. He must get used to the pressure coming from a club like Juventus. Top clubs want to win every game."
