Chiellini has also racked up the personal honors having been named Serie A's best defender three years running from 2008 through 2011. 

This year could see even more additions to the trophy case with Juventus a strong favorite to win Serie A and facing a Champions League semi-final against Monaco. 

Friday's 2-2 draw with Atalanta saw Juve push their lead atop Serie A to nine points over Roma, who face Lazio in a derby match Sunday.
