Parma boss Roberto D’Aversa has challenged Dejan Kulusevski to ‘now show that Juventus were right to invest in him’.

Juve have agreed to pay up to €44m for Kulusevski, who will stay at Parma on loan for the rest of the season.

The winger failed to make an impact during the Ducali’s 1-1 draw with Torino yesterday, and D’Aversa is keen to see more from the winger. 

“I talked to him. Although he’s very young, he’s very mature and respectful,” he told Sky Sport Italia.

“I talked to him. Although he’s very young, he’s very mature and respectful,” he told Sky Sport Italia.

“Like Dejan, there are other players on loan. The difference in what he earns between this season and next could weigh heavily on him.

“What he has to do now is show that Juventus were right to invest in him. He has the maturity of a top player.”
