Juventus player Dusan Vlahovic gave an interview to the newspaper 'L'Equipe'. The Serbian did not hesitate to admit what is one of his most ambitious desires: "Obviously, I dream of winning the Ballon d'Or".
Vlahovic was asked about his coach, Massimiliano Allegri, for whom he had only good words: "I have the opportunity to work with one of the best coaches of the last 20 years. He added: "He knows how to talk to the players. He helps me a lot.
As for his future, the Serbian said he is very happy in Turin: "I want to win something here, then we'll see. Regarding interest from PSG and Chelsea, he said: "I heard and read about it, but I didn't know anything. I was thinking exclusively about myself and preparing myself as well as possible to start the season".
Juventus still have objectives ahead of them this campaign, they are in the semi-finals of the Italian Cup and must certify their qualification for next season's Champions League. But the Juventus forward regretted not having mounted more of a fight for the Scudetto, which Inter eventually won: "To achieve both would be fantastic, but we still can't say we're totally satisfied given the needs and history of this club. We had the chance to fight for the league, but if you fight until February...".
Vlahovic went on to assess his performance this season: "I scored 16 goals, 17 including the Italian Cup, but I could have scored even more. I always want to do more, I want to be one of those players that people remember. There are those who play football for money, but these things don't interest me.
Finally, the Serbian listed a list of strikers he looks up to as role models: "Cristiano Ronaldo, who I followed when I was a winger at Manchester United. I appreciated his movement and his killer instinct. I think he is among the best in history. Also Ibrahimovic, and Torres at Liverpool. Then there's Benzema, who I admire. Mbappe is 25 and he's almost won everything. Even Giroud, a giant. He also added to the list players with whom he doesn't share so many characteristics: "I'm not a player like Neymar, Messi or Hazard that when you see him you say 'Wow!"
