Juventus midfielder Arturo Vidal has declared Real Madrid the best team in the world as the two teams prepare to meet in the semi-finals of the Champions League on Tuesday.

The Bianconeri will head into the first leg of their tie with the European champions full of confidence after winning the Serie A title by beating Sampdoria on Saturday.

"I feel good and the team is playing with maturity," Goal.com quotes Vidal as saying. "We will be heading to the Bernabeu for the return leg, a stadium that gets me excited just thinking about it.

"I know Real Madrid are the best team in the world but we want to be in the final. It would be a dream to win the Champions League. We will have time to celebrate at the end of the season."

Juventus have not reached the final of the Champions League since 2003.
