Facundo González is among the Juventus youngsters currently on loan this season, having joined Sampdoria at the beginning of the campaign.
The Uruguayan talent, who arrived at Juventus after winning the U20 World Cup, is highly appreciated and is expected to have a successful professional career. Juventus, recognizing his potential, opted to send him on loan to Sampdoria under Andrea Pirlo to ensure he gained valuable playing time.
Although he initially faced challenges, Gonzalez is now getting consistent playing time as Sampdoria look to make a late push to secure a return to Serie A next season.
Amid the positive developments, his agent has provided an update on González’s future, emphasizing that he is enjoying a good spell at Sampdoria. This suggests that the loan is proving beneficial for his development and integration into professional football.
Martin Guastadisegno said, quoted by Il Bianconero:
“Facundo is very happy, after the U20 World Cup won with Uruguay he had many options, in Serie A and other championships. He chose to move to Juventus and it was an important moment. Sampdoria was 100% right, Pirlo is doing a great job, Facundo is happy and would be even more so if he managed to contribute to Sampdoria’s return to Serie A. In case of promotion, one could also think about staying with the Blucerchiati. We’ll see, clearly we would talk about it with Juventus to be able to make all the necessary assessments.”
Juve FC says
González is a very good young defender and he showed it at the U20 World Cup.
We expect him to be better developed when he returns from his loan spell in the summer.
