Juventus coach Allegri: Iling-Junior future can be in midfield

Juventus coach Max Allegri can see Samuel Iling-Junior having future teams built around him.

The England youth international has enjoyed a first team breakthrough this season.

Ahead of their Coppa Italia semi clash with Inter Milan, Allegri was asked about the youngster.

"At the moment he is Filip Kostic's deputy," said the coach, "(Mattia) De Sciglio can also play there.

"In my opinion he (Iling-Junior) has the qualities to play as a midfielder but I haven't tried him there yet."
