Sigh of relief at home Juventus regarding the conditions of Weston McKennie. The American, after leaving his national team’s retreat early, returned to Turin in the last few hours and this morning went to J Medical for the necessary instrumental tests.
According to what has been gathered, while awaiting the official statement from the Juventus club, for McKennie it is a simple muscle strain in his left thigh. The player will therefore miss the match against Lazio at the resumption of the championship scheduled for Saturday 19 October at 8.45pm for the sole precautionary purpose, but already for the Champions League match against Stuttgart on Tuesday 22 October he will be regularly available to Thiago Motta.
As mentioned, a sigh of relief for Juventus and its coach, also given the problems of Teun Koopmeiners, Nico Gonzalez and Bremer which clearly limit Motta’s choices in view of the next tour de force, with the match against Lazio will also see the absence of Francisco Conceiçao due to suspension.
