Since making the jump from Eintracht Frankfurt to Juventus, Filip Kostic is still trying to adjust to his new surroundings, and surely the current crisis at the club didn’t help his case.
Nonetheless, Max Allegri still relies heavily on the winger, especially in the absence of some of the club’s other top stars such as Ángel Di María and Federico Chiesa.
For his part, Aleksandar Mitrovic is a great admirer of his compatriot, and has only words of praise when it comes to the new Juventus signing.
The Fulham striker is enjoying a strong campaign at Fulham as he prepares to lead Serbia’s attack at the upcoming World Cup alongside Dusan Vlahovic.
The Premier League attacker says he enjoys his partnership with the Juventus striker, however both will rely on Kostic’s valuable serve.
In a recent interview, Mitrovic was asked about Di Maria, but he made it clear which Juventus winger he prefers.
“Di Maria is a great champion, but Kostic is my favorite winger at Juventus,” the 28-year-old said in an interview with Gazzetta dello Sport via ilBianconero.
“Filip is one of the best wingers I have ever played with. If you put him in a position that exploits his potential, he returns it to you with crosses and assists.
“I am not saying this just out of friendship, but out of experience. I scored several goals thanks to Kostic”.
