Juventus midfielder Mauricio Isla has revealed that he is keen to repay the faith that the club showed in him while he was out injured.

Isla has returned to start the previous two Serie A games and he said that the patience shown with him by the club has meant a lot.

"I had a nasty injury and everyone here at Juventus has been very patient in waiting for me," FourFourTwo quotes Isla as saying.

"I have always given my all, but I need to continue working hard to repay people for the faith they have shown.

"Antonio Conte decided that I would stay at this club and I'm happy to be here, but I need to show that on the field of play."

Isla, who joined Juve from Udinese last summer, has won 41 caps for Chile.
