Edon Zhegrova was one of the most talked-about names on Wednesday’s thrilling night for Juventus, in the dramatic match against Galatasaray. Despite a missed chance in the final seconds that could have made the score 4-0, the Kosovar’s performance remains one of the most convincing of the season for the Bianconeri.

The Italian newspaper TuttoSport dedicated a special article to the performance of the Kosovar international.

“Thrown onto the field by coach Luciano Spalletti, Zhegrova took advantage of the tactical change that sidelined Francisco Conceicao and Jonathan David, who failed to make an impact. On the right flank, Zhegrova turned into an explosive ‘hammer,’ elusive and consistent in pressing,” writes TuttoSport.

The play that led to Juventus’ second goal, scored by Federico Gatti, bears his signature. Dribbling, pace, and the right decision at the final moment—these are the qualities that had convinced Juventus to invest in him last summer.

In added time, Zhegrova had the chance to crown the night with a goal but was denied by Turkish goalkeeper Ugurcan Cakır. A small blot on a great performance, which does not diminish his influence on the game.

After a last season affected by injuries, the Kosovar finally seems ready to take a central role at Juventus, a call that TuttoSport also directs to coach Luciano Spalletti.

“Zhegrova can and should be a central figure for the Bianconeri’s future,” the article concludes.

While awaiting his progression with the “Old Lady,” Edon is also expected with open arms for Kosovo’s decisive matches in March on the road to the 2026 World Cup, with the big clash against Slovakia coming on March 26.
