Juventus legend sees âthree playersâ to build on for 2026-27, but David lacks âpersonalityâ
Juventus legend Fabrizio Ravanelli believes Kenan Yildiz, Gleison Bremer and Francisco Conceiçao should build the âstrong coreâ of the Bianconeriâs team in 2026-27, but is disappointed by Jonathan David: âI donât think heâs a player you can rely on to win Champions League titles or Scudetti.â
Former Juventus and Italy striker Ravanelli, a 1996 Champions League winner with the Bianconeri, shared his thoughts on the Bianconeriâs attacking struggles this season.
Canada international David has scored eight goals across all competitions, resulting in the third-top goal scorer at Juventus in 2025-26 after Kenan Yildiz and Weston McKennie. Yet, Ravanelli feels the ex-Lille forward hasnât shown enough quality in his first season in Turin.
âIt was a negative season. He has scored some goals, but I donât think heâs a player you can rely on to win Champions League titles or Scudetti,â Ravanelli told Gazzetta.

âHe has paid a high price for the leap in quality. Playing at Juventus and in the French league, without too much pressure, is not the same as making a difference at Juventus. The shirtâs weight is much more difficult to bear, and you need a great personality. The difference between a champion and a good player nowadays lies in personality, character, and determination. You need to have these qualities to play at Juventus, or youâll struggle.â
Dusan Vlahovic has missed most of the season due to fitness issues, including surgery that sidelined him for four months.
Just like David, Edon Zhegrova and Lois Openda also joined Juventus last summer, but Ravanelli would rely on just one of them going forward.
âI think Zhegrova has more personality than others,â said the ex-striker.

âSince Spallettiâs arrival, David and Openda have always given me the impression that they donât really want to take on too much responsibility. On the other hand, Zhagrova is someone worth continuing to invest in because he has real quality. Iâd love to see him in a positive Juventus side and in a winning environment. Heâs the kind of player who embraces responsibility, not someone who, after failing one dribble, shies away from trying another. He has a very strong personality.
âI think there are three or four players Juventus can build on,â Ravanelli concluded.
âYildiz, Bremer, and Conceiçao must be retained to build the strong core of the team.â
During the same interview, Ravanelli also discussed Juventusâ possible reinforcements from next season, suggesting that the Bianconeri should try to sign Gabriel Jesus from Arsenal.
