But Bonucci insisted their latest Serie A triumph was the most pleasing of all because of all the struggles the club have had to endure on and off the field at various points in the season.

‘It was the most beautiful title, because it was the most difficult,’ the 33-year-old told Sky Sport Italia.

‘We started a new era, a new philosophy, ran into so many difficulties, but we continued to give our all throughout, even when there were so many slip-ups. 

‘It was so complicated outside the field too, the world changed in three months. We had to get our minds back on it, but we did it. We wanted it, we suffered.’

However, the Italy international also dedicated the win to those who had lost their lives to the virus but maintained that they had struggled to adapt to Sarri’s style of play at times. 

‘I have no words. We gave everything to ensure that we would do this for us, for the club, for the fans who cheered us on from home, or from heaven. 

‘We wanted to celebrate with those who weren’t able to be here with us. When you wear this jersey, you cannot hold back. It has been an intense year.

‘We struggled at times to interpret the coach’s philosophy, but we remained a team, we worked as great men more than great players. Now we’ll try to rest over the next 10 days and then prepare for the next challenge.’
