Juventus coach Allegri blasts Rabiot; urges Soule calm

Juventus coach Massimiliano Allegri is demanding better from Adrien Rabiot.

Allegri insists Rabiot is now at a stage in his career where he must start performing consistently.

“It's useless to talk about potential, Rabiot must do more, it's very simple," he snapped.

Allegri was also asked about the Argentina call-up for Matias Soule.

He added: “He is a good player, but we can't put too much pressure on him. Otherwise, we make the same mistake that we do with other young players.

“They become Ballon d'Or material after three games. I will repeat it forever: a player reaches his maturity at 25-26, after playing many games."
