Giorgio Chiellini keen to avoid talk of treble

Giorgio Chiellini has claimed that talk of Juventus winning the treble this season is premature after they earned a place in the Coppa Italia final.

Massimiliano Allegri's side overturned a 2-1 first-leg deficit by beating Fiorentina 3-0 in their semi-final tie on Tuesday evening, and Chiellini understands that the pressure to triumph in the Coppa Italia, Serie A and Champions League is growing.

"Winning games helps one's winning attitude, and these last few weeks in Serie A have given us the strength to thrive in the cup and in Europe," the Italian defender told Rai Sport.

"Treble talk is more a newspaper's job than mine, but it is right that fans dream of such success. We must not take our eye off the ball, though.

"You have to think about the present and the upcoming matches, not the prize at the end of the road."

Juventus are currently 14 points clear at the top of Serie A, and will meet Monaco in the first leg of their Champions League quarter-final next week.
