He signed his first professional contract on 1 October 2021. On 5 December of the same year, Juventus first-team coach Massimiliano Allegri called him up for a home match against Genoa. They won 2–0, given Mattia Perin's absence. Perin was quarantined over a COVID-19 contact. He became Juventus U23's third-choice goalkeeper during the 2021–22 season, under Lamberto Zauli's management and occasionally alternated training with Andrea Bonatti, the under-19s coach. In August 2022, he featured in the annual friendly match between Juventus A (the first team) and Juventus B (Juventus U23) in Villar Perosa. He entered the pitch in the second half. He played with the latter, without conceding a goal, but they lost 2–0 due to Manuel Locatelli and Lenardo Bonucci's goals.
