I wasn't happy at all when he arrived here- tbf I was more mad at Giuntoli than at Kelly himself for what seemed like a very odd signing, but I'm glad he's proved me wrong. Kelly's been one of our best performers this season (4th according to fotmob: FotMob rating – Juventus stats for Serie A 2025/2026), but in my opinion he's been our 3rd best player this season, behind Yildiz and Mckennie. He hasn't put a foot wrong in most games (Napoli away was an exception, but most of our team played badly that day) and has scored some really clutch goals vs Inter and Dortmund.
More so, he's a really nice guy, very humble and down to earth and did not have an easy childhood. I loved this interview he had on the Juventus Youtube channel (PS: the interviewer is really good, check out his other interviews as well): LLOYD KELLY – Against All Odds | @ Small Talk S02 E02

Yes didn’t start off the best but this season he’s stepped up a level in defence and in attack. I’m glad he’s keeping Gatti out.
I’m very happy with his progression. There is a dearth of left footed CBs, and Kelly becoming a big player is massive for us.
What a player he is, we really needed a long, strong and left footed defender
If he was playing this good in England they would ask £70 million for him. Been so consistent this season.
I was just saying this a week or two ago. I can’t believe it’s the same player as we saw playing last year. He’s been phenomenal this season. He doesn’t put a foot wrong in defense, and his passing skills are really really good. The clutch goals against Inter and Dortmund are still so crazy, and if that alone I’ll be forever happy with him😅
Kellyni. Also, Whoijsen?
I’m waiting for a substantial offer from the Premier League to sell him.
He’s a good player now, with good performances. I’m used to playing for BBC, so I’d like a top player like Bremer and Kalulu.
