'Pirlo is so nonchalant but you can't take the ball off him' - Juventus new-boy McKennie

Juventus midfielder Weston McKennie has said that Andrea Pirlo still boasts the qualities he had during his playing career, stating that it is impossible to get the ball off of his new coach.

McKennie joined up with the Serie A champions in the summer transfer window on an initial loan deal with the option to buy for €18.5 million (£17m/$22m), potentially rising by a further €7m (£6m/$8m).

Pirlo, meanwhile, is in his first role as a head coach since hanging up his boots. And despite the 41-year-old's inexperience in the dugout, McKennie is well aware of the potential to learn from one of the all-time midfield greats.
