Summary
Tarik Muharemovic has opened up on his departure from Juventus, telling gianlucadimarzio.com that he wants to leave those early years behind. The 2003-born defender came through Juve's academy but never made a senior appearance for the club, following a similar path to fellow academy product Huijsen before his move to Sassuolo proved the catalyst for his breakthrough.
Now at Leeds United after his €37m transfer, Muharemovic acknowledged that the decision to move him on was not his to make but expressed gratitude for the defensive education he received in Italy, particularly from Bonucci and Chiellini. He also suggested some coaches at Juventus and Sassuolo did not have his best interests at heart, but remains determined to demonstrate his quality in the Premier League.
