That means that the Derby d’Italia against Inter on Sunday is considered his first match as a full-time Juventus player, though his permanent signing from Monza has not yet been announced.

Juve have already paid a fee of €4.5m to sign Di Gregorio on loan from Monza, and will now pay a further €13.5m plus €2m in bonuses to extend his stay at the Allianz Stadium beyond the summer.

The former Nerazzurri graduate had also been linked with a move to Liverpool over the summer, before the Premier League giants landed on Giorgi Mamardashvili as the heir to Alisson Becker’s throne.
