In the summer of 2004, Genoa sold 50% of Criscito and Francesco Volpe contracts to Juventus for €1.9 million, with 50% contract of Antonio Nocerino was sold to Genoa for €450,000.{{cite web|url=http://www.juventus.com/media/native/investor-relations-docs/english/financial-statemet-and-reports/2004-2005/25_ott_2005_eng.pdf|title=Reports and Financial Statements at 30 June 2005|date=25 October 2005|access-date=22 January 2017|publisher=Juventus F.C.}}

Criscito played for Juventus's Primavera team alongside Italy U-21 teammates Claudio Marchisio, Paolo De Ceglie and Sebastian Giovinco, and together they won the 2005–06 Campionato Nazionale Primavera. In the 2006–07 season, he returned to Genoa and established himself as one of the top young defenders in Serie B. In January 2007, Juventus bought his remaining 50% registration rights for €7.5 million. This was paid by the co-ownership of Masiello and Konko to Genoa, and €5.25 million cash.{{cite news|url=http://www.juventus.com/site/filesite/finance/comunicatipricesensitive/25_gen_2007_eng.pdf|title=Agreements with Genoa C.F.C.

Criscito made his Serie A debut for Juventus on 25 August 2007, in Juve's comeback game in Serie A versus Livorno, a crushing 5–1 victory. However, he endured a difficult time at the Turin club. He was deemed "too soft" to be a centre-back after Francesco Totti scored twice in six minutes in the September game, a 2–2 draw, against Roma from his side of the pitch. Criscito was substituted at half-time. After that, he found himself behind Nicola Legrottaglie and Giorgio Chiellini in the pecking order due to their outstanding form.
=Return to Genoa=
Not happy to remain on the bench, Criscito opted to return to Genoa on loan in the opening days of the 2007–08 winter transfer window. On 3 July 2008, he was sent on loan to Genoa again for €1 million{{cite news|url=http://www.juventus.com/media/native/investor-relations-docs/english/price-sensitive-press-releases/2008-2009/comunicato%2003072008%20palladinocriscito%20eng.pdf|title=Agreements with Genoa C.F.C.

Style of play
Criscito was a tactically versatile player, who was capable of being both an effective attacking and defensive threat as a full-back. He began his career as a left-footed centre-back, but he was moved to the position of left-back while playing for Genoa, where he was also employed as a wing-back or as a wide midfielder on occasion under manager Gian Piero Gasperini in Genoa's 3–4–3 formation. Criscito was described as a quick defender, with good technique, distribution, and man-marking ability.
