Deschamps regrets quitting Juventus

France coach Didier Deschamps admits he regrets quitting Juventus.

The Frenchman left Juve in 2007 after guiding them back to Serie A.

"I left because of differences in transfer strategy with the directors they had at the time, but we had already been promoted into Serie A," Deschamps told France Inter.

"I wanted one great signing per area of the team, while they wanted to rebuild the squad with mediocre buys. At the end of the day, obviously they won.

"In any case, my resignation was a mistake. Going back, I wouldn't do it again."
