Juventus: Dusan Vlahovic continues to be a concern

The Serbian striker returns to work in Turin early next week but is plagued by the usual problem

The World Cup is coming to its final week, and Juventus is preparing to welcome more players back from the World Cup: among them from Monday will be Dusan Vlahovic, who will return to Continassa after a bad tournament in Qatar peppered with a thousand controversies with Serbia.

Juve’s medical staff is concerned above all about the physical condition of the forward, who had left Italy as a casualty and returns with the usual pubalgia problems.

Vlahovic has not played a game since last October 25, and in a recent interview he explained that the pain is still there. Massimiliano Allegri’s will is to gradually reintegrate him into the team in order to recover him 100 percent ahead of the game against Napoli scheduled at the Maradona next Jan. 13.
