Juventus' Holland defender Matthijs de Ligt insists Italy are yet to prove themselves at the Euros.

The Azzurri are into the round of 16, but De Ligt says they're yet to be tested.

“I've watched Italy, they play really well," said De Ligt.

"They don't even seem Italians. They attack, they press high up the pitch and that's nice to see.

“However, just like us, they didn't play against top teams like Germany, Portugal or France. That's the next step for them and us."
