Sevilla defender Loic Bade says he'll be ready for tomorrow's Europa League semifinal.

Sevilla face Juventus tomorrow night in the first-leg.

Bade told AS: "I'm not the type of player who watches a lot of football, but clubs like Juventus are almost completely known without having to watch football. They are great players, but we are not afraid of them.

"We will have battles, there are 180 minutes and we know that we can leave Turin with something positive."

Like Juve midfielder Paul Pogba, Bade also played youth football with Le Havre.

He continued: "Paul Pogba is a reference. When you arrive in Le Havre you see the photos of the best professionals who have worked at that club. There was also Mahrez, Ferland Mendy, Payet... When you see the image of Pogba you immediately want to have the same type of career. Playing against him is something very nice after having both been in Le Havre. It's incredible to meet players of this calibre.

"I think, at one point, Paul has been the best (in the world). Then he was at a lower level, surely injuries also affected him. But what is certain is that he continues to be part of the best. And with that we must stay."
