Ranieri does not want Diego at Juventus

Juventus coach Claudio Ranieri does not believe the club needs Brazilian international Diego.

The former Chelsea manager says the Werder Bremen midfielder would not fit into his 4-4-2 system.

Reports have long linked Diego with a move to the Old Lady and there have also been talks between the player’s agent and Juventus officials.

“Diego is a great talent, but he is a trequartista,” Ranieri explained.

“We would have to change our system to fit him in and one of our wingers would have to be benched.

“In the end I would rather stick with the men that we have, even if we need some back-up.”
