He is a very positive figure and certainly did not deserve the insults received, Chiellini told Juventus TV.Moise is a legacy of Italian football, a golden boy, who is doing his best and should not appear for what he is not.“From the field there isnt a good account of what happened, but I have reviewed the images and Moise did nothing.After tonight, we must think of him as Zaniolo, Chiesa, Barella…as a positive figure of Italian football, because he deserves it.The only thing he did wrong today was the simulation, that he surely won’t repeat, but he’s here to learn. He’s a very positive figure and he certainly didn’t deserve the insults he received.
