    Juventus News: Agent hits out at Rugani’s bench role

    • Lorenzo Bettoni (@lorebetto)
    The Rugani-saga has suddenly exploded at the Juventus Stadium. The player agent has hit out at the Bianconeri as Massimiliano Allegri benched the former Empoli star during yesterday’s clash against Serie A strugglers Verona.

    “The club keep saying that Rugani is important for them and that he’s their first choice after the trio Barzagli-Bonucci-Chiellini”, Daniele Torchia told Radio CRC.

    “Andrea Barzagli was injured yesterday and everyone expected Rugani to play from the first minute, but Caceres was deployed instead. I just hope they won’t change their mind.”

    “This choice has left me perplex since Rugani played very well in Coppa Italita [against Torino].”

    No secret that Napoli head coach Maurizio Sarri is a long-time admirer of the 21-year-old full back and would like to bring him to the San Paolo.

    “Rugani and Sarri admire each other, but Napoli can’t wait for Rugani [to join them]. Juventus don’t want to sell him, which makes everything more difficult.”

    Juventus consider Rugani a milestone of their future and have no intension of selling him, sources told calciomercato.com after Torchia’s interview.
