Joe Hart hails Torino as an “incredible experience” and is fired up for Sunday’s derby

Joe Hart has hailed his time with Torino as “an incredible experience” and is fired up for this weekend’s Derby della Mole against Juventus.

Hart has been a Serie A ever-present for Toro since his surprise arrival from Manchester City on transfer-deadline day back in August, and the goalkeeper admits he has learned to broaden his scope of football beyond the Premier League.

“I’m glad to have joined Torino,” he told Omnisport.

“It’s all new for me here, but I’m living an incredible experience and I’ve met some great people.

“You learn that football doesn’t revolve around what happens in England, here there’s interest, passion, love. I’m very happy here because this experience is making me better.”

Hart then looked towards the Turin derby on Sunday and what the future had in store, given he is still owned by City.

“Next up is the derby. There aren’t big differences with Manchester in the way derbies are experienced,” he added.

“It’s already been talked about for several weeks. Juve are a tough team, solid at the back and always manage to do damage going forward.

“It won’t be enough to play well, we’ll have to score in order to win.

“My future? I don’t know yet. Obviously I’m still a Manchester City player, but nothing will be resolved before the summer.”
