Weston McKennie is having his best season so far. The young USMNT player has improved a lot at Juventus under Andrea Pirlo and his first ever season in Serie A has been great for him. However, things are not going so well at the moment, and he would have to work harder despite earning his place in the starting eleven.

And that is because as Fabrizio Romano said, Juventus signed a wonderkid in his position, someone who has featured in many Serie A games and has been a regular in Italy youth teams. His name is Nicolo Rovella, and will join from Genoa at the end of the season after the Old Lady paid 10 million euro..  

 

McKennie, at the same time, is not too happy with his coach. Yesterday he was subbed off in the 19th minute of the game against Sassuolo. The coach said it was because of a muscular problem, but the USMNT midfielder looked fine and made an angry gesture to the Italian legend.

Anyway, the former Schalke 04 player knows that Pirlo still counts on him, and the Rovella signing means he just has to keep working as he is and he must not get complacent once he was confirmed as a regular starter. Pirlo hopes McKennie to see the situation like this and not start conflicts again.
