Weston McKennie wants to prove he’s worthy to Juventus and its fans. He joined the 36-time Italian champion for the 2020-21 season, had his following season cut short by a broken foot, then was loaned to Leeds last January and couldn’t prevent the club from relegation. McKennie returned to Juventus this summer, entered the first two matches as a substitute and made his first start last weekend in a 2-0 win at Empoli. At Juventus, he’s a teammate of fellow American Tim Weah _ a son of Liberia President and former FIFA Player of the Year George Weah.
