Injuries have slowed down his career since making his breakthrough at Inter-Milan, and after coming through pre season unscathed he was widely tipped to have a better season with Torino after an injury hit time last season.

The 26 year old proved right talks of him having a better season this time around by scoring his first goal of the season from his central midfield role in their last league game, which was the 3-0 win over Sassuolo.
