Dejan Kulusevski was ready for Juventus at the beginning of the year and has already made his first match for the club.

Today he was officially presented.

As expected, the 20-year-old was given number 44.

At the press conference, he paid tribute to coach Andrea Pirlo.

- Pirlo is fantastic.

He talks to me a lot and that I get to be trained by him is an honor.

What he says to me makes a difference, says Pirlo to Football Italia.

"It was special for me"

Kulusevski also said that he was called by Zlatan when the transfer to Juventus was complete.

- He was my idol, he has opened doors in Sweden like no other.

We've talked, he called me.

It was special for me, says Kulusevski.

- When I was little I could never believe that Zlatan would call me.
