Juventus defender Dean Huijsen details senior career plans

Juventus defender Dean Huijsen is targeting a first team breakthrough.

The 17 year-old was tipped as one to watch by Juve academy chief Gianluca Pessotto last week.

He said, "In training, I marked Vlahovic, Morata, Dybala.

"They are all top players. I was sorry for the sale of de Ligt which is a reference for me, I would have liked to play with him, but the comparison that brings us closer does not put pressure on me, on the contrary, I am pleased because he is a great player.

“I hope to get to the first team next year, or I will go on loan to a Serie A or Serie B club to experience".
