Milan, 15 June (LaPresse) – ‘Juve always has the same ambition to win. We want to do this with humility. We know that the best teams in the world are here, but we didn't come here to participate, that's clear.’ These were the words of Juventus coach Igor Tudor to DAZN ahead of the Club World Cup debut. ‘The journey was what it was, now we have to adapt to the weather and the time zone quickly because we play on Wednesday,’ he added. On what it means to have extended his contract until 2027. ‘I'm happy that we've done this together and we're looking ahead. We're playing soon and we're focusing on doing things right,’ said Tudor. When asked if he had already spoken to Vlahovic and if this World Cup could also be a starting point for a future at Juve, he replied: "I've spoken to everyone, everyone is fine, everyone is eager and motivated. There's a good atmosphere, we finished the league in the best possible way and there's a good atmosphere,‘ said Tudor. There are also some players who have returned from loan spells, such as Rugani, who could be an added bonus given the emergencies in defence. ’Of course, they're good lads, I've seen them for a week and they'll definitely give us a hand," concluded the Croatian coach.
