He came on as a late substitute for Juan Cuadrado as the Bianconeri chased the game against PSG.

“All the sacrifices I’ve made since I was a child have paid off , I’m experiencing a moment of incredible happiness. We played a great game. game for all ninety minutes, PSG deserved the victory in the end, but we managed to keep up with them from start to finish . My growth? I’m improving day by day both technically and mentally.”
