At only eight years old he was noticed by former Torino players Antonio Comi and Silvano Benedetti and joined the Torino youth.[2] In 2013–14 he was one of the stars of the Primavera side of Moreno Longo that reached the finals of the tournament, lost on penalties to Chievo Verona.[2] He finished the season with 20 goals scored between the league and cup (with two fundamental goals scored in the final phase of the tournament against Lazio).[2] Throughout the season he was regularly called up to the first team by coach Giampiero Ventura.[2]
