Argentine Paulo Dybala, Colombian Juan Guillermo Cuadrado and Uruguayan Rodrigo Bentancur entered the Juventus Turin list for the Champions League debut against Swedish Malmoe, after missing the league match against Naples last Saturday.
Coach Massimiliano Allegri did not want to risk and left out for the match with Naples, lost 1-2, all his Latin American players who played the qualifying matches for the Qatar 2022 World Cup with their national teams.
Without them, Juventus suffered their second consecutive defeat in Serie A, after making their debut with a 2-2 in Udine, despite taking the lead in Naples thanks to a goal from Spain’s Álvaro Morata.
Dybala, who must lead the Turin club after the departure of Portuguese Cristiano Ronaldo, will start against Malmoe and they could also return to the eleven Cuadrado and Bentancur.
Juventus are in group H along with Malmoe, Chelsea and Zenit.
In the last two seasons, the Turin side, who have not won the Champions League since 1996, were eliminated in the round of 16 by Lyon and Porto. EFE (HN)
