McKennie told Juve’s website: “I was in Italy for some time by myself, now there is a couple of Americans that are here.

“Just to have him here is amazing. To see what he has accomplished. Knowing that his dad is a big Juventus fan as well. If during the World Cup, I would have told him, we’d be teammates the following season, I don’t know how he would react. I know Tim is happy to be here. It’s also good to have a person that gets American slang and gets my energy.

“I have a travel partner to go to America when we play for the national team.”
