Nicoló Fagioli is starting to look different, and somehow, with Juventus. The ‘bianhoneri’ has a new 21 year old pearl, and the midfielder was a big surprise for Allegri’s men. In the last 3 games the Italian has scored 2 very important goals.
With almost no participation at the beginning of the season, he did not play more than 10 minutes off the bench, Fagioli went 7 games in a row without playing a minute. In those 7 games, Juventus won 4 games and lost 3, a poor balance for the team from Turin. After being left out in the group stage, many fans were calling for Allegri’s head, but Fagioli gave the team a step up in quality.
From the ‘bianchon’ academy, the young midfielder played last season at Crotonetraining in the second Italian category, where he played 33 games, scored 3 goals and dished out 7 assists. This season he has already scored 2 goals, a crucial goal against Lecce with a good thread that gave Juve the victory, and the second this weekend for a sentence against Inter.
Allegri already saw the young man’s potential, and in the 2018/19 season he made his debut with the first team, but he had a health problem that delayed his explosion. In 2019, a cardiac arrhythmia forced him to stop for a month, and a well-known figure active in the club at the time helped him a lot, Cristiano Ronaldo. “Cristiano is very close. When he was young he suffered the same problem and he helped me, advised me where to operate and how to recover properly. I saw him for the first time in person during the Chilean night with Madrid at the Allianz Stadium, a few months later I was with him in the locker room, helping me. I can’t even open my mouth.”
He finally recovered from heart problems and stood in Serie C with Juventus’ second team. Pirlo also included him in a game with the first team, but he preferred to go to Cremonese to gain experience.
After his great participation, related to the improvement of the team, Fagioli seems to have merged with Juventus, After two consecutive starts, against PSG and Juve, the youngster seems to be one of the great joys of Allegri and Juventus, who both need new hope to overcome a bad start to the season.
