Rodrigo Bentancur is in his second season at Juventus. The Uruguayan midfielder who arrived in Turin in the summer of 2017 became a key player in Massimiliano Allegri's midfield, convincing everyone that he has what it takes to be a Juventus player. This was especially evident during the first half of this season, backed up by two goals against Udinese and Fiorentina.
The number 30 told Sky reporters about the emotions of his second year with Juve which ended with another #W8NDERFUL Scudetto: “For me, it was incredible to win the championship form the second time with Juve. I think repeating as champions with this club is a goal for any player in the world. I am relishing this Scudetto with a lot of joy and with the same happiness as last year and also because it is the eighth league title in a row which is an exceptional achievement".
The contribution of Bentancur this season has been very important, playing 38 games so far, of which 29 have been in the league: “It was an important second year for me in which I learned to play many games at a high level.
“Now we will play the last games with the same spirit as always. We won the Scudetto but now we want to show everyone once again why we deserve it. Plus, they are also games that I will personally use to prepare for the Copa America.
“We will start with a bang, because the next match is the Derby d’Italia against Inter. It will be a great game at the San Siro and we will do everything to bring three points home. You will see a super aggressive Juventus, who will put a lot of pressure on our opponents and we will try to keep possession."
