Daniele Rugani says he’ll happily stay at Empoli next season ‘if Juventus don’t think I’m ready yet’.
The centre-back has been purchased outright by the Turin giants, having previously been co-owned by the Tuscan side.
It was widely expected that would lead to the Italian Under-21 international returning to the Bianconeri in the summer, but the defender says he’s happy to stay.
“It’s still early to talk about the future,” Rugani explained to Radio Lady.

“It’s still early to talk about the future,” Rugani explained to Radio Lady.
“At the moment I don’t know anything. I’d stay willingly [at Empoli] and would even go as far as to push for that opportunity if Juventus don’t think I’m ready yet.
“I’m fine at Empoli, and I think that staying with this team would be ideal to complete my journey of growth.”
