Juventus in emergency, problems for three
Juventus to Napoli
Juventus’ first training session ahead of the challenge against Napoli was attended by about two hundred official supporters of the club. Despite the absences of Locatelli and Alex Sandro at half duty and Rugani due to flu, the Bianconeri engaged in themed exercises, schemes and a final match with the support of the young Under-23s in attendance.
The team’s sporting director Giuntoli, who was present on the sidelines, witnessed the good form of Milik and Vlahovic, who received applause for some spectacular goals. Alex Sandro did only the first part of the warm-up with his teammates and then è moved to a parallel field to complete his training.
Focal the work of Danilo, who showed enough intensity to suggest the possibility of his employment from the first minute along with Gatti and Bremer. De Sciglio and Weah are still missing from the roll call, while Yildiz and Huijsen, who are engaged in the upcoming Next Gen match, were absent. Vlahovic è then lingered at the end of training to kick penalties, scoring an impressive 5 goals out of 6 attempts (parried by Pinsoglio).
Tactical indications were not numerous, but preparation seems top-notch ahead of the challenge. There remains the injury emergency, with the conditions of Locatelli, Alex Sandro and Rugani therefore needing to be re-evaluated in the coming days to see when they will really be back available.
