Juventus midfielder Mohamed Sissoko believes that Bayern Munich and France international Franck Ribery would be a great addition to the squad. The struggling Serie A side are reportedly interested in his services.

"Ribery is a great player," he suggested to Juventus Channel. If he came to Juve it would be beautiful and he would give us a big hand."

After spending an extended period on the sidelines, Ribery dropped several places in the Castrol rankings. However, he did make a successful return on Wednesday, scoring in the DFB Pokal clash against Greuther Fuerth.

Meanwhile, Sissoko would also be in favour of his former coach Rafa Benitez coming to Turin during the summer.

"If he arrived I would be very happy. He gave me the opportunity to play at Valencia at the age of 17. Under him we won a title, he is a very good tactician," he continued.

"When I played for him I was still immature, but now I have grown as a footballer."
