He has scored five goals this campaign, one against Manchester United and a hat-trick which rescued Juventus in the last 16, second leg against Atletico, before returning from injury to score against Ajax.The club, who are captained by 19-year-old defender Matthijs de Ligt, spent a reported club-record €45 million last summer on new signings to bolster their Champions League hopes.
