The national break has come to an end and the Juventus players will return to Continassa in the next few days to prepare for Saturday’s match at 6pm at San Siro against Milan. Yesterday, the team met at the JTC for a training session: “The team, therefore, while waiting for the return of the national teams, returned to training this morning at Continassa: like yesterday, the day’s menu has a warm-up phase is planned and then a focus on exercises dedicated to technique and athletic work”.
No injury for Vlahovic, but the Serbian will be out against Milan.
Good news has arrived at Juventus regarding the conditions of Dusan Vlahovic. In fact, the Serbian striker did not find any injuries, as communicated by Juventus itself: “Following the muscle problem in his left thigh suffered yesterday (Monday ed.) with his national team, Dusan Vlahovic underwent surgery today, 19 November, at the J |medical, to diagnostic tests. The tests have ruled out injuries and his condition will be monitored daily.” Dusan Vlahovic, however, will not be available for the match against Milan and also remains at high risk for the Champions League match against Aston Villa. Thiago Motta, this season, has never given up his bomber jacket and will have to find alternative solutions to avoid missing DV9.
Thiago Motta is studying alternatives to Vlahovic.
For the match against Milan, Thiago Motta will have to give up Vlahovic, Douglas Luiz, Milik and Gonzalez as well as Bremer and Cabal. The Juventus coach is in great emergency especially in the advanced department and will have to invent some solution. Thiago Motta only has Weah, Mbangula and Yildiz at his disposal and none of the three represent a first striker role, so he will most likely be forced to ask for a sacrifice from one of these players. The surprise move could be represented by Koopmeiners as a false 9. The Dutchman has been used a few times in that position by Gasperini and could provide the team with all his experience and technique. The San Siro match is still a few days away, but Thiago Motta will have his work cut out for him so as not to make Vlahovic regret it.
