Fiorentina coach Cesare Prandelli wants more from youngster Stevan Jovetic after his performance in their 3-0 victory over Reggina.

He said: "He is a talented 18-year-old, but we need patience, as if we think he can make the difference now then we would be wrong.

"He didn't come back in midfield enough, but he has certain tactics to understand. The important thing is he has character."

Prandelli also took the opportunity to brush off reports he is being lined up to replace Claudio Ranieri at Juventus.

"There is nothing to say about these rumours. Quite simply, they are false and that's all there is to it."
