Former Inter Milan and Argentina forward Hernan Crespo believes that the signing of Carlos Tevez will allow Juventus to fight on all fronts next season.

The 29-year-old, who joined the Serie A winners from Manchester City this summer, has been branded "a real champion" by his compatriot.

"Carlos is a real champion, a top player outside of the area. It will be interesting to see how Conte manages him. They are two real winners," he told Tuttosport.

"When I saw Carlos four months ago, he had become much more mature and calm than before. Tevez has joined a strong team. Juventus are sitting in pole position for the Scudetto and can also go far in the Champions League with a bit of luck.

"Tevez is not the type of player to win games all on his own, though. Only [Lionel] Messi can do that. But he is a player who will not let you down. He is a guarantee for goals. He has what it takes to open up difficult games."

Tevez is expected to form a new-look strike force with Fernando Llorente in Turin next season.
