Agent: De Ligt already Juventus captain - even without the armband

The agent of Juventus defender Matthijs De Ligt says he's so good he'll end up being Prime Minister of Holland.

Mino Raiola placed De Ligt at Juve last year from Ajax.

He told Tuttosport: "Perhaps he is already the captain of Juventus, even without an armband.

"The choice to go to Turin was a good one: he and the clubs were married for seriousness, pursuit of perfection and hard work. He will become the best in the world in his role and has the chance to win the Ballon d'Or: then when I stop I see him as Prime Minister of Holland.

"He will be a great politician."
