I’m cheering for Juventus, of course."He also spoke about the 2022 World Cup in Qatar, stating: "I couldn’t come (in 2022) because I was in the US at the time.

The performances were also very good and there was not much travel and people could watch a lot of matches. It was unique. It is impossible to have another World Cup like Qatar because of many factors like the country size, capacity of the stadiums and more. It was good."Qatar showed that it is possible to create a competition in the winter, in the middle of the season and involve all fans from around the world," he added.The 40-year-old also shared his excitement about the Club World Cup, set to be held at the end of the season."The new Club World Cup will be a huge tournament.
