“He has completed the coaching course. We had a conversation about football and how things work in this job, which could be different from what he had experienced as a player. I’ve known him for a long time. We played together with the national team, and it was an honour to receive his visit.”

During his meeting with the media, Motta said Juventus midfielder Douglas Luiz would not be available against Torino in the derby della Mole on Saturday.
