Juventus midfielder McKennie convinced he's improved this term

Juventus midfielder Weston McKennie feels he's grown this season.

McKennie returned to Juve after spending last term at Leeds.

The USA international told ESPN: “For me, I think the league helped me grow in more of a tactical and positional standpoint.

“I was in Germany before, and I was the workhorse still, running everywhere and trying to get into everything, maybe running 60 yards when I only needed to run 20 to get the same job done, so I think that Italy helped me out in that way, it's a very tactical and defensive league."

On his difficulties, he added: “Probably just the language. Also, coming here and being someone no-one really knew about, I didn't have a translator so I was just sitting in meetings like 'Uhh… what's going on?' and then was expected to do it on the field straight away. Definitely the language."
