To those who call me a mercenary I say that I also had interest from abroad, where I would have earned more. I have chosen Milan because, in my head, there is the idea of repeating the course I had at Juventus, where we had started rebuilding, as in this case, and we came to the top.

Art Would Who

We are professionals, we have to set the example and not provoke anyone.

Leonardo Bonucci

T Set Provoke

Defending is definitely an art.

Leonardo Bonucci

Art T Finite

Since I was in the youth team I would love to dribble past opponents with a dummy. That tendency got even stronger under Giampiero Ventura at Bari, as we never threw the ball away.

Leonardo Bonucci

Love Youth You

What I discovered is that there has always been a soldier inside me; I just didn't know it.

Leonardo Bonucci

Ways Way Us

The truth is that we should live with less envy and more cordiality and empathy.

Leonardo Bonucci

Truth Wit Truth Is

If I've ever followed Conte, then it's been to get a coffee at most.

Leonardo Bonucci

Wed Then T

I have to prove everything on the pitch.

Leonardo Bonucci

Very Thing Thin

Juventus have to win always, we must spit blood every time we step on to the pitch.

Leonardo Bonucci

Time Win Ways

I defend my goal as if it were my home. I do my best to defend it and not to allow anyone to score goals or penetrate that. It's true.

Leonardo Bonucci

Home Were True

I have always said that for me it would be an honour to continue at Juventus and to end my career here, because it's a shirt you are proud to wear.

Leonardo Bonucci

Car You Would

When I was a kid I was the black sheep of the family because all my uncles and cousins were big Inter fans while I've always been Juve. In fact when I'm injured or suspended I'll be in the stands behind the goal when we're playing - in with the fans where I'm happiest.

Leonardo Bonucci

Family Yin Wit

When the best manager in the world says you're one of his favourite players, you act like it's nothing, but you still can't help but have a smile on your lips.

Leonardo Bonucci

Smile Age Your

I feel I have the Juve shirt sewn to my body because I breathe it every day, but wearing the national team shirt is also an honour.

Leonardo Bonucci

Wearing Wear Very

Cristiano Ronaldo's arrival here at Juventus has been fundamental.

Leonardo Bonucci

Men Vent Us

Defence for me is so important because I do not want anyone to trespass and invade my property because that goal is my property.

Leonardo Bonucci

Want Use Us

As a lad I missed five months of sporting activity to OSD. It used to wake me up at night with pain in my knees.

Leonardo Bonucci

Wit Wake Used

The objective is to be competitive from March onwards.

Leonardo Bonucci

War Pet T

What Conte gave me was hunger, the desire to never give in, the mentality that allows you to go beyond pain to reach your objectives.

Leonardo Bonucci

Men Your You

I met some beautiful people at Milan, first of all Rino Gattuso. It was a difficult year, but that's not to say it was useless.

Leonardo Bonucci

Year Useless Use

Those months at Milan let me do some soul-searching and made me realise that my calling was at Juventus, who are like my family.

Leonardo Bonucci

Family Who Vent

At Treviso, my entire career was in danger; I lost all self-esteem and confidence.

Leonardo Bonucci

Being captain of the national team is definitely something you can feel.

Leonardo Bonucci

Allegri is very good at managing the locker room in the most difficult moments of a season, to make the team understand how to manage the time of a match.

Leonardo Bonucci

Sarri is meticulous, passionate about tactics, he likes to make the team play well.

Leonardo Bonucci

I live with challenges.

To those who call me a mercenary I say that I also had interest from abroad, where I would have earned more. I have chosen Milan because, in my head, there is the idea of repeating the course I had at Juventus, where we had started rebuilding, as in this case, and we came to the top.

Leonardo Bonucci

I want to win all the titles.

Leonardo Bonucci

Juventus have been everything to me over the years. I grew up a lot here and the club always supported me.

Leonardo Bonucci

I have the fortune of playing with world-class stars.

Leonardo Bonucci

I understand the fans, I respect them. I'll accept the whistling and booing. It's up to me to transform that all into applause.

Leonardo Bonucci

Real Madrid's interest? Yes, it's true, Real Madrid were interested in me. It was an honour and pleasure for me, it means that I have worked well in these years.

Leonardo Bonucci

The national team should unite under one flag, leaving out the club stories.

Leonardo Bonucci

Mancini makes us feel good inside and outside of the field.

Leonardo Bonucci

What interests Chiellini and I is not conceding goals. We're able to create chances and it makes us happy when we take them.

Leonardo Bonucci

I like to look forward, not back.

Leonardo Bonucci

I wouldn't trade any of the championships I've won for anything.

Leonardo Bonucci

At Juve you always have to go onto the field ready to give your best.

Leonardo Bonucci

It is not in the DNA of Juventus to think of a draw.

Leonardo Bonucci

Juve is my home.

Leonardo Bonucci

I was struck by the ideas of Sarri, when you see them from outside you get a certain idea but when you are inside you understand the intelligence of a coach who has brought new ideas.

Leonardo Bonucci

In Europe we know that the great teams always improve and we will have to do battle with them.

Leonardo Bonucci

The decision to go to Milan, as everyone knows, made me mature as a man. It was a big chance and perhaps too big for the man I was at the time.

Leonardo Bonucci

The young Leonardo was a bit too fiery.

Leonardo Bonucci

When you meet someone who gives you good advice for your own, you must have the humility to listen.

Leonardo Bonucci

I watched a lot of Alessandro Nesta videos, as he had similar characteristics, studied carefully and applied myself.

Leonardo Bonucci

These technical flicks and tricks come naturally to me and I don't really think about them. I did a backheel against Udinese and the coach would've strangled me if he could have!

Leonardo Bonucci

My motto is 'from difficulties up to the stars.' I got a tattoo to represent that when I used to sit in the stands at Treviso.

Leonardo Bonucci

This stadium is the history of football, the most important arena in Italy. Stepping into San Siro always has an effect on you.

Leonardo Bonucci

There is nothing better than feeling you are a player that youngsters look up to.

Leonardo Bonucci

I will give all I have got to improve my qualities and be important for Juve and for the national team.
