Juventus hero Fabrizio Ravanelli has urged fans not to give up on Paul Pogba.

Pogba appears set to miss preseason due to more injury problems.

Ravanelli is close to Pogba and he told TV Play: "He has great enthusiasm and desire to redeem himself, it is logical that he will have to follow different workloads, he must be monitored daily but in his heart he wants to stay with Juve.

"It depends on the physical problems, I hope to see him soon on the pitch even in the first few days. It's not an easy situation to manage anyway."

Ravanelli also commented on Dusan Vlahovic, whose future in the Bianconeri shirt appears far from certain: "I don't know what could happen, last year he had difficulties not only physically but also mentally. Then, I repeat: playing with Fiorentina is another thing compared to doing it at Juve, the balls weigh more."
