Juventus coach Massimiliano Allegri insists he's not forgotten about Daniele Rugani.
The injuries of Giorgio Chiellini and Martin Caceres have pushed Rugani forward in the pecking order ahead of the game against Napoli tonight.
“Regardless of how this championship ends, Juventus have a future for the next years with these players," said Allegri.
“[Daniele] Rugani? He's a kid, he's good, he's young. He came here from Empoli with only one Serie A campaign under his belt.
“At Juventus he met four players among the strongest in Europe ahead of him and had to adapt to a completely different playing system.
“He must not be pressured. The same people who want him on the pitch now will crucify him as soon as he makes a mistake.
“Managing Rugani and the other youngsters is down to me, so I have to do this to my best. Rugani is and will be the future of Juventus and Italian football. Best not to hurry.
“He developed a lot in the last two months and his increased playing time is evidence of that, but this is not a reason to heighten the pressure on him. He's young and he must do what he can right now."
