Lorenzo and Richard agree that the talented youngster has already shown enough quality and potential to merit a call-up to the senior Italy national team, raising the question of whether he could soon take the next step in his international career.

Serie A and Italian football got further encouragement on Thursday, as Juventus secured a 2-1 away win over Celta Vigo.
