Juventus midfielder Adrien Rabiot has described Andrea Pirlo as "the perfect coach" for him.

The legendary Italy midfielder was recently appointed as Maurizio Sarri's successor, despite his lack of managerial experience.

But that isn't a problem for Rabiot, who is excited to learn from the former AC Milan and Juventus star.

'He's a former great midfielder. For me, it's important," the French midfielder told a press conference on Thursday. "On the principles of the game and what he wants to put in place, it suits me, so of course, that can help me improve.

"A coach like Pirlo, for me as a midfielder, it's perfect."
