The comparisons were almost inevitable because of the Brescia connection and the hair style, but what does Andrea Pirlo think about Sandro Tonali? The World Cup champion discussed the comparison during an Instagram live chat with Nicolo' De Devitis:"They say Tonali could be my heir, but I don't think we are the same type of footballer. Maybe it's the long hair or fact he plays for Brescia, but he's much more complete, he can do both the offensive and defensive phase"
Pirlo went on:"Tonali is for certain the most promising midfielder in Italy. I don't see him as my heir because we are different, but he will become a champion. Roberto Baggio? I knew him well, he was my teammate at Inter and an idol for me"
