The addition of Samuel Mbangula, who made his club debut, was one of the biggest surprises in that first official game. 

The club's confidence in its up-and-coming potential was demonstrated by the Belgian youngster's remarkable performance. Mbangula demonstrated that Juventus has a bright future with these young talents by stepping up alongside another elite Next Gen player, Nicolo Savona. Recent senior call-ups to their respective national teams—Italy and Belgium—for Mbangula and Savona further highlight their potential. Juventus wants to give these individuals more chances to show off their skills on a large platform, and their ascent to fame has motivated other young players in the academy. Juventus is once again looking to its Next Gen team for answers in the aftermath of injuries to important players like Juan Cabal. Spanish talent Javier Gil Puche is one of the next possibilities to be promoted, according to Calciomercato.
