Juventus' Giorgio Chiellini Talks Matthijs de Ligt Arrival, Mauro Icardi Rumours

Juventus captain Giorgio Chiellini has hailed the arrival of Matthijs de Ligt at the club but would not be drawn on rumours linking the Serie A champions with Inter Milan's Mauro Icardi.

De Ligt joined Juve from Ajax in July on a five-year deal for an initial fee of €75 million (£67.8 million).

Per Ilbianconero.com (h/t Calciomercato.com), Chiellini said:

"He is the most talented youngster in Europe, and we are happy to have him with us. All those who arrived raised the level of the team.
