Danilo likes two Juventus starlets to ex-Man City teammate Foden

Danilo has compared Juventus' starlets to former Manchester City teammate Phil Foden.

The Juve fullback was asked about young teammates Fabio Miretti and Nicolo Fagioli.

"I remember Phil Foden when I was at Manchester City. He was 17 years old. I could see in his eyes that he had the will to learn and improve to be the best," said Danilo.

"Here at Juve, I see players like Miretti and Fagiolo who have that will in their eyes, and that really pushes us players who are more experienced.

"I often try to talk to them, give them some advice. Being there with them motivates me more. Right now we need their help a lot because they are players who have been at Juventus since their childhood.

"It is clear that you don't just have to play good football to be at Juventus, you have to have the right attitude and the skills to be there in the decisive moments - in the most difficult moments. And in my opinion, they can give a lot to this team in the coming years."
