Juventus legend Alex Del Piero admits he's a fan of Kenan Yildiz.

The Turkish midfielder pays tribute to Del Piero when scoring by celebrating with the former Juve captain's trademark tongue sticking out.

He told Sky Italia: "It gives me enormous pleasure to be compared to him for the exultation of his tongue sticking out.

"I like him, he's a promising young man. Good luck to him too."

Del Piero also had a word for AC Milan prospect Francesco Camarda: "He seems like a good boy and has great potential, I wish him all the best. Predestined? It's an adjective that one must earn."
