Genoa coach Davide Ballardini hopes to keep hold of Nicolò Rovella next season.

The midfielder was signed by Juventus before spending the remainder of the season on-loan with his formative club.

“Juve will decide on Rovella's future. Should he stay I would be very happy," Ballardini told Tuttosport.

Ballardini also discussed Italy's Euros campaign and the prospect of Cristiano Ronaldo staying with Juve.

“You can see that the Italy players love each other. All these aspects, combined with a greater attention and seriousness should lead to good results," he said.

“We have so many good players. If I have to name one, I would say Locatelli. Three years ago I would have liked to have him at Genoa, but now it won't be easy at all.

“If Ronaldo stays at Juventus, he'll be an added value to the league. Cristiano is 36-years-old, but he is still a real player."
