The defender left Malaga for Juventus and is currently playing on-loan with Roma.

And actually, Serie A made me, it's giving me things to make me a better player, even though I still have a lot to learn."
Huijsen added: "(Jose) Mourinho has always treated me well, but now the relationship with Daniele de Rossi is incredible too. He takes great care of me, he's a fantastic person and I get along well with him."
