Gigi Del Neri has admitted he can't contain his excitement after leaving Sampdoria to become the new manager of Juventus.
Del Neri is set to be unveiled as Bianconeri boss this week following a fantastic season with Sampdoria, in which he guided the Genoa outfit to fourth place in Serie A and Champions League football next season.
But European football is something that Del Neri will not be enjoying in 2010-11, as Juventus finished seventh in the league, ending a dreadful season by missing out on Europa League football by four points, with Napoli pipping them to the post.
Del Neri's biggest challenge will be keeping hold of Juventus' biggest names, with goalkeeper Gianluigi Buffon likely to be top of the list of stars he needs to convince to stay in Turin.
