"For me, I am very happy because it is a great honour to receive this award... at my age. I'm proud of it but I want to say thanks to my club, my coach, my teammates because they help me to make it possible and I want to say thanks to all the person (sic) who voted for me and I think the last year has been a fantastic season for Juventus, and a personal season. It wasn't enough to win in Europe and for this year I hope that we can to play better and with the national team and Juventus because I will like to finish with the soccer with a fantastic victory."
