Jonathan David welcomes former Lil teammate Edon Zegrova to Juventus and hopes to score Bianconeri’s “any goal” on Saturday.
David announced an interview with Gazetta delo Sports three days before the important Serie A fixture between Juventus and Intelli.
David has already made his debut with Parma in the Serie in August and dreams of doing the same to Juventus’ biggest rival this weekend.
David dreams of scoring against Inter
“Whether it’s an acrobatic finish or a tap-in at the goal line, any goal will be happy as long as it helps the team win,” he said.
David joined Juventus on a free transfer earlier this summer.
“I signed with the knowledge that I’m joining the European giant, but with you inside you understand the size of this club even more. I haven’t had the opportunity to visit the museum yet,” he said.
“Players, fans… At Juventus, everything has to be big and everything has to be done at the highest level.”
David is currently on international duties with the Canadian national team and currently plays for Villarreal along with his former interdefender compatriot Tajon Buchanan. Did they talk about Derby da Italia?
“It’s not about Inter, but we talked about Villarial Giuventis, a Champions League match in October,” David revealed.
Villarreal is one of the eight opponents Juventus will meet in the Champions League league phase this season.
David will play as Juventus’ only striker, but will form a two-man offense at the international level. Which system does he prefer?
“I feel comfortable with both systems. In recent seasons,” he replied.
“I played as the only striker at the club level, but with the national team, I was always affiliated with another forward. It’s not a big difference for me. I enjoy both.”
Does this mean he can play with Dusan Vlahovic in Juventus?
“It’s possible, but it’s a decision for the coach. It’s a more question for Tudor. I’m ready for any solution and enjoy playing in every role,” David said.
“Dussinn and I want the best thing for the team, so push each other on the pitch.”
Juventus signed David’s former reel teammate Zhegrova before the international break.

“I spent a few seasons with him. Edon is an incredible player with great left foot and great dribbling skills. A great signature,” the Canadian striker said.
“On the reel, we have always had strong bonds on and off the pitch, and there is a real connection between us, which is an advantage in Juventus as well.
“I don’t predict the numbers, but I know him and I’m sure he’ll help me.
Kenan Yildiz and Gleison Bremer will play a key role in Juventus during this term.
“Kennan is young and has enormous qualities. If he continues to be like this, he has everything he needs to be a top, top, top player,” David said.
“My first Serie A goal for Juventus was against Parma from Yildiz Assist. It’s really fun and it’s a privilege to play with him.
“Gleison has fantastic physicality and he plays with very strong. Even for our striker, he’s difficult to face training, but sometimes I was able to score against him.”
