Former Bayern Munich chief Karl-Heinz Rummenigge can see Giorgio Chiellini becoming sporting director at Juventus.

Rummenigge believes Chiellini is well prepared for the post once the defender hangs up the boots.

The former Inter Milan striker told Tuttosport: "I wish him so. In addition to being a champion, he is a well-trained person: I have ascertained it in person years ago when Giorgio came to Munich to be treated by the Bayern doctor.

"Characters like him make a difference on the pitch and can also make it as managers. The important thing will be to give Chiellini responsibility, exactly as Bayern did with me. Often Unfortunately, the clubs rely on former players to make a good impression on the fans."
