With the 22-year-old midfielder s rank within the club increasing following the departure of three iconic players over the summer he has become integral to the club.
With a lot of expectations now on the Frenchman especially after he was handed the no 10 jersey. One former player has called for support for the young man.
Juve have started the season with two successive defeats leading to worries the former Man Utd player can't carry the side.
He however has the backing of former Italy winger Mario Camoranesi who has called for his teammates to step up and lighten the load on the midfielder's shoulders.
Speaking to Corriere dello Sport he said:
It's strange to see the Frenchman with that number on his shoulders: he has other characteristics."
"One cannot ask you to drag the team at his age, he has a great future ahead, and has proven to have huge room for improvement.
"Right now he is the most important player in the team but to load him with too many expectations would be wrong. It risks burning him out. If he gets the right support he will become crucial for Juve."
