Juventus Vice-President Pavel Nedved spoke to Czech website Denik and compared Juventus transfer target Patrik Schick to one of the World’s best, Zlatan Ibrahimovic.

“Patrik has had a wonderful season,” Nedved said to Denik.

“Given the fact that he was born in 1996, he’s managed to do a lot of great things. He’s scored 11 goals.

“We’re not the only one club following him, though. There’s interest from clubs in Germany, England, Spain and Italy.

“Schick has a great future in front of him. Right now he doesn’t have the muscles, but you can just imagine him in two or three years.

“He reminds me of Zlatan Ibrahimovic, because he was like that when he came to Juve. He didn’t have the muscles either.

“Then Zlatan gained muscles and turned into a world class striker. Schick is also this type of striker – great feet, tall and fast.

“If Patrik keeps improving himself he can turn into a world class striker as well.

“Will he join Juventus? Schick is still a Sampdoria player. The price is clear though, because of his release clause.

“Anyone who is willing to activate it is able to buy him. It is a very simple transfer. All you have to do is convince the player to join you.”

Nedved shared a thought about Saturday’s massive tie in Cardiff.

“The squad is calm, focused and do not feel big pressure. We have a good record against them [Real Madrid] and I hope we’ll continue that on Saturday.

“The match will be balanced and very difficult. It will be a celebration of football because both teams deserve to play in the final.”
