Juve: Benatia forces Rugani out?

By Football Italia staff

If Juventus sign Bayern Munich's Medhi Benatia, Daniele Rugani will ask to leave for a club such as Roma.

The youngster waited patiently for his moment last season, but he would not tolerate being relegated from fourth to fifth defender in Max Allegri's hierarchies.

According to La Gazzetta dello Sport, if Benatia is signed from Bayern Munich, Rugani will ask to leave Juventus. This, however, doesn't mean that he would be going for good, as he could still be loaned out.

Napoli famously tried to sign the 21-year-old in the past, but the hottest candidates right now are Roma, who are desperately trying to rebuild their defence.

It remains to be seen whether they'd accept a loan deal with no option to buy.
