Quotes:
“His Serie A debut has not yet arrived but the 18-year-old is doing everything to prove that he deserves one. He has also ended up in the sights of Juventus as the Bianconeri offered €500k to sign him, but the Rossoneri management immediately refused it. A loan spell in Serie B could be next on the cards, just as Lorenzo Colombo is currently doing.”
